Possible bug?

Battlefront features the power of battalion-level combat in some of this period's most bloody and intense conflicts: Saipan, Market Garden, Novorossisk, and Gazala. Players will have realistic control over their soldiers, with a tactical scale just large enough to make a telling difference in the strategic picture.

Possible bug?

Post by jynx11 »

Umm, sorry about making another thread.
First I would like to say I like this system much better then BII :). With that said I have an observation. I noticed that after I do close combat and the unit is forced to retreat, on the incidents I had, the retreating unit would become untrenched from the close combat and retreat to a stack of units that ARE entrenched, no biggie, I will just take my kick ass arty and send them packing. Well, it seems that when I use my arty on them, they act as if they are entrenched along with the units it ended up retreating to. If I am correct, entrenced units required 2 dice and un-entrenched units only require 1 die. I am assuming when I do close combat and force a unit to retreat it becomes un-entrenced? The problem I am having is when it retreats back to a stack of entrenced I still required 2 dice for arty. Is this correct?
Thanks

Yep, that is artillery working correctly. Any entrenched unit in a hex will cause the artillery barrage to be double die events.

Dude, you ever sleep. :) Thanks for quick reply. Just so I get this straight. If I have 4 units in a hex and only 1 is entrenched, that one entrenced unit will cause all incoming arty to be 2 dice, correct?

That's correct.
