Routed units travel over Gulf of Riga

Post by von Beanie »


I don't know if it is a bug, but routed units in the Courland Peninsula often go over the Gulf of Riga to the island off Estonia. I don't believe this was intended, and it's not a game breaker for me, but it might be something you might want to prevent.

FYI, at times the rail status map won't come up when I click the button. The other buttons (like the fort button) work fine, but the rail net won't work. It is sporadic, and I can't seem to figure out a consistent pattern as to why and when it won't work.

Rail status button doesn't work if you have a unit selected. You have to click in an empty hex first, then click the button.

The movement of routed units is apparently working as intended - it appears that this is abstracted and they ignore terrain and other movement penalties. I think that they should be removed from the map and the escaping manpower added to either the force pool or to a reconstituting unit back behind the MLR.

Unit can rout across the water hexes if there is a valid path through the ports, which is the case with Gulf of Riga and Estonian islands.

I had Russian units rout across the water to reclaimed Finnish territory north of Leningrad and displace some Finnish HQs! That was annoying ;)

Sounds bad. Is it repeatable? Do you have save?
