Enemy units entering your victory hexes

Post by RUsco »

Why do enemy units entering your victory hexes, while you are occupying them change the hex to thiers.
I have seen this numerous times and it is annoying. Doesn't seem to matter how many of your units occupy the hex.

Anytime a unit enters an enemy victory hex, the hex will be changed.

You can do the same thing to your enemy. If he occupies a victory hex, you can move in and take it from him.

Whats worse is when player 2 in a pbem game waits till his last turn to do it Image
Would make more sense to me if you had to be the only occupying force in a hex for a full turn before it turned.

This doesn't seem terribly unrealistic to me - after all, in real military strategy, if you don't exclusively occupany an area (to the exclusion of the enemy, that is) then you don't properly hold the ground.

I agree with you guys, it's bind this, but it's one of the limitations caused by the original game engine. They may be a work around with this, but to be honest fellah I suspect that now that the Matrix guys are starting to look to new projects it's something that we'll have to put up with I'm guessing!

Enemy units retreating won't change the hex.
