crispy131313 Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 I have recently discovered that you can choose your movement path with units. This is especially interesting with naval units, as destroyers can zig zag around the map to protect convoy lanes. How come this feature was never published? It's pretty cool, and when used with forced march on land can result in a pretty damn good scouting expedition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xwormwood Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 It is a very old feature, and, of course, explained in the manual (page 65). So it was probably mentioned years ago when it was introduced into the game engine. But who would love a publisher who advertises "old" (but still good) features?

crispy131313 Posted October 20, 2012 Author Share Posted October 20, 2012 I had no idea it was around for that long (slaps forehead). And I thought I found something here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xwormwood Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Well, you did found something: I'm sure that most players (like myself) don't read manuals, or at least not very thorough. So messages like yours will help forum users to learn more about what is already within the game engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlape3 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 This feature does not always work as expected. For instance, when plotting an artillery unit, it will fire on any tile which is a valid target rather than simply traveling there. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
