Dmeek Posted November 16, 1999 Share Posted November 16, 1999 I just downloaded this game and am quickly becoming addicted. I searched this question but couldn't find anything. Can a defending squad or unit prepare more than 1 foxhole /defensive position in the set up phase? For instance, can I have a squad dug in in a forward position for ambush /scouting duty and then have a foxhole waiting for them in the mainline of defense that they can fall back on? Was this even a common tactic? Also, I have many other mundane questions that I don't want to bother this forum with, is ther a FAQ on basic game play / functions posted anywhere?

Los Posted November 16, 1999 Share Posted November 16, 1999 Actually it's a legitimate question and a very common tactic (alternate battle positions) though as far as I know it is not something that can be done in CM at this point. Los Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOS was 71331 Posted November 16, 1999 Share Posted November 16, 1999 In a design-your-own situation with a budget to allocate for your side, field fortifications can have prices just as well as troop units. If you'd rather allocate purchase points to foxholes than to tanks, who am I to say you're wrong? For the situation designer, I suppose it's a question of how long the defender has been in his (his/her for the PC crowd) positions. The longer the troops have been there, the better their prepared positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
