Yes, and this reason is also the main reason why I generally prefer manual wargames. No "black box" problem. /J quote: ORIGINAL: Banzan Your idea how to handle strat. moving may be better, but we have to live with what we got. Michaelm can't change the engine, only parameters of it. And i seriously doubt that's possible to do within this game engine.

quote: ORIGINAL: PT boat skipper What is my suggestion? I would prefer two different defensive postures in one hex. In order to fully conquer a hex you first need to do 1) and then 2). 1) The beach (including port and airfield) 2) Hinterlands (the hex sides) This will have the effect that as a defender I can choose what to defend with every unit in the hex. [...] Or, as an alternative to change-suggestions we will not get, you could simply adapt and not shock attack into an unknown opposition without preparing accordingly. By landing your troops you get the beach already (admittedly without your desired port and AF but thats a bit excessive anyway IMHO). Noone says land combat is the most realistic part of WitP AE, but the implications of strat movement, base interconnections, and combat odds & firepower calculations, are obvious, and so such situations can be avoided. In your case means: You simply do not land at a single beach on Ceylon without bringing enough firepower to defeat the enemy units on Ceylon.
