jbeigie Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I've taken Salonika and Athens. The Greeks are still in the war. What does it take to knock them out? Do I have to invade the islands? Not going to happen with the overwhelming Allied Naval strength in the Med. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sapare Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 They might have two or more home units still within their borders(probably not on the islands, how did you capture their captial cities, did you land in them?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill101 Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Sapare is right, because if the Greeks still have units fighting on within their borders, they may surrender if there is only one, but won't if they still have two units within Greece.

jbeigie Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 It was the number of greeks that was keeping them in the war. New question. Lots of times I have eliminated everyone in a city and then find myself unable to advance in. This happens even if I haven't moved yet before combat. Very frustrating to clearing a tough city only to have the enemy reoccupy it and have to do it all over again. What is that deal with that? Anything to minimize this?

Sapare Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 This is probably caused by the fact that the field is "locked down"(Idk what the offical term is) by other enemy units. If two or more enemy units make contact to the field you are trying to enter you have to use an extra movement point to enter it.(as such if you attack and kill a unit in a city you can't move in because there are probably still the two units left and right of it stopig you. As for having not attacked, maybe you are in low supply, or it is already a mountain region that takes more movement points?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill101 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Sapare is correct, as the zone of control imposed by other enemy units could make this be the case. At least one flanking unit will need to be destroyed or at least forced to retreat. However, if that and/or low supply don't appear to be the cause please let us know and we'll be happy to take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
