Hack022_slith -> Hmm, now I'm confused--Land combat question (7/16/2004 5:14:29 AM)
I'm having fun learning this game (not so much reading the manual), but I'm confused on something I've seen during some amphibious assaults I've done. What happens is, i'll land some units during a turn and when I go give them orders on the next turn (I click on the infanty icon in the hex), no unit descriptions comes up, and I don't have the ability to issue any orders (it's not that I can see them and they are greyed out, they just don't exist) This has actually happened when I've landed troops on an unoccupied enemy territory[&:]. What I do get is a summary on the far right of the screen showing me the numbers of first/second line troops, vehicles, assault numbers etc... Does not seeing the units and orders mean something in the game (no leadership, out of supplies, fatigued, disorganized?), is this a bug or something else. I've tried to see if this is anywhere in the manual but no joy. Your help is appreciate. Thanks Tony Yep, my first post

I've noticed this too.. try looking at the bottom of the screen at the unit indicator list thing.

The way to get around it is to click on the hex itself and the list of units will appear on the bottom then click on the units. So click on the base you are invading and you will see the units at the bottom.

Clicking on the unit icon in the hex only seems to work if you "own" the hex, therefore when you are attacking you will always need to access your unit(s) by the bottom panel, or so it seems playing head to head anyway.
