Im only able to load units in vehicles during deployment, othervise it always says that unit is too far away. Any suggestions on what im doing wrong? [im using 4.5] Is this a bug perhaps? Because i dont remember having this trouble before. I just got back to playing.

Hello, It is not a bug. It is very intentional. All you have to do during the game is to make sure that the vehicle and the leg unit is in the same hex. I think this was intoduced to make it impossible to 'teleport' a leg unit using a long column of vehicles. ------------------ Lars Nec Temere - Nec Timide

Yes i see how that could be used as cheating. Perhaps i missed some part browsing through the manual but how can you move a unit into a hex that is occupied? [i just manage to activate that unit] The way i make it work is by getting the movement points to end in that hex. Im sure that it is a dumb idea to do it that way. Thank you for any followup to this =)

Hold down the "shift" key to move multiple units into the same hex. Each hex represents 50 yards, room for lots of stuff. [This message has been edited by REMF (edited January 01, 2001).]
