I noiced that when first selecting a unit of any type, you cannot see the avalable move options ie lighted hexes. Only after the first actual move do the hexes then show where a unit can move. Also the magnification could go one level closer. Now I've only started one scenario, so do the closest magnifications vary from scenario to scenario? ------------------ Jeff

I've noticed the same thing; is there a particalar reason for this? Edgar ------------------

I've not seen this. What are your settings in the prefernces? What I have noticed is sometimes it will show a false movement radius. How I can tell is the unit doesn't make the hex I tried for, I hit the back button, click on the unit again and the hex I was going for is no longer lit up. ------------------ Peace, Pack Rat

I've noticed that if my Ger armored cars are fired on, they stop (of course) then when I click on them again, they have lost a significant amount of their movement (could have moved 15, now 8 or so) and when I click on them the movement radius is less than actual, i.e. when I click on them after being fired on I get a 5 hex or so radius but they will actuall go 8 or so. I've not played enough to generalize this bug, I've only seen it in this one case.

I think the lost movement points are due to suppression points from taking fire. I also noticed that with c&c on you can't see move radius and of course with it off you can.
