The fish Posted May 7, 2008 Posted May 7, 2008 It appears to have ceased to exist. How...odd. I'll make it again in a min, but the name/pw will be different (I want to get a couple of mates and DomJcg in it).
Mundi Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 I want to find the guy who designed this and punch him! Was gonna convoy an army into enemy territory and had another unit support him after the round I get this message: "Your fleet at North Sea's move support wasn't accepted by the unit which support was being given to." It didn't even tell me why he couldn't support I just got a "just because"
Dan_Dare Posted May 8, 2008 Author Posted May 8, 2008 huh that's weird I'm not sure how you do that. maybe you support the ship doing the convoying?
Mundi Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 After I did all the support stuff it said that my fleet was supporting a unit being convoyed to another territory.
Dan_Dare Posted May 8, 2008 Author Posted May 8, 2008 right: If A is the unit being convoyed, B is the ship doing the convoy, C is the friendly unit on the other side and D is the target... do you do C support A to D or C support B to D?
Mundi Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 According to the message I got it appeared as if C was supporting A to D
Dan_Dare Posted May 8, 2008 Author Posted May 8, 2008 bet it works the other way the syntax of convoys is wank though. really confusing.
The fish Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 What's a support move and support hold? You didn't read the rules, did you? A support move is supporting by on unit of another's move into another area. It's how you invade defended areas, basically. Support hold is helping a unit defend it's area - basically, if an attacker's move is supported, a support hold essentially nullifies the support. Oh, and if a unit giving support of any kind is attacked, it has to concentrate on defending itself and can't support that turn.
Dan_Dare Posted May 8, 2008 Author Posted May 8, 2008 basically, you need a 2:1 numbers advantage to take a defended province, so if 2 of your units are next to an enemy held area, you give one the order to move in to the square, and then give the 2nd a support order. The 2nd stays where it is but the attack is now at double strength so you'll win the space. Support hold is basically the same thing but backwards. Two of your units can be given the order to defend a single spot so that any attack has to be 3:2 to succeed. man, your post was much better. haha.
MoogleViper Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 I just move and hold. You didn't read the rules, did you? Nope.
