I understand what it means when there's noroom in a city, but what exactly does "move blocked" mean?




Marshall Ellis -> RE: Move Blocked? (12/15/2007 8:54:28 PM)

This could happen if you're in a rural area with an enemy force and you're trying to move.
Tell me some specifics and maybe I can let you know what's going on...

I have seen this Marshall.  It will happen when you fight a field combat, win, and then try to move into a city to set up a siege.  However, I have also seen it when the city is completely empty, and you try and move in a garrison or Corps.

At least that is when I saw it.

Ahh, OK. Did any of the units forage and use unused MPs?
If anyone has a saved game, I would love to see this.

What Suovorov said - I had just won a field battle, and the garrison in the city only had 1 factor in it. I didn't forage because I had a depot set up on a fleet of Heavies off shore. I'll send you the save tonight or tomorrow - what's your email address?

Don't forget to send both files. (.sav.dat and .sav)

I can't cross the Channel as France in winter with no forces across the sea from me and no fleet blocking the Channel. Move should cost 4 and I have 4 (1 clear + 1 arrow = 2 doubled = 4) [&:]

Do you have Winter Movement option turned on?





CapnKnuck -> RE: Move Blocked? (1/18/2008 11:28:33 AM)

I've tested this several times as well.  After a field combat, regardless of whether besieging corps foraged with/withou using excess movement, or in normal supply, I have been unable to enter the city to lay siege to garrisoned factors.  I get the move blocked error.  I've asked my group to see if they can also recreate this, but I have not once been able to besiege an enemy city after winning in the open field.

Am I doing something wrong, or is there really a bug here?

The Cap'n.




Jimmer -> RE: Move Blocked? (1/18/2008 7:33:52 PM)

Did anybody use the "auto forage" button? That will cause this every time when you have both a field combat and a garrison, IF the forage value of the land space is suffient to feed the troops with movement, for ONE of the attacking corps.

Auto-forage forages everything that can safely forage, using all their movement points.
