I presume where there's two friendly units next to each other, one of which is next to an enemy unit, and you wish your units to swap places without having to do some movement tetris into other hexes

If you select a unit and then hold down the SHIFT key on the keyboard and mouse over with a unit you wish to swap with, and then left click again it will swap with that unit. Of course as long as it is eligible to swap.

Hubert,
If I remember correctly this "swap" does have a significant morale penalty.

You put your first unit in, and shake the defender all about.
You take your first unit out, put your second unit in and shake the defender all about.
You take your second unit out and turn yourself around.
You do the unit swap attack...
because that's what it's all about.

Does anyone know what that penalty actually is?

Also is all entrenchment lost when swapping units, or is some of it preserved - e.g. if rotating units into/of a city or fortified hex?
