Attacking enemy units

Post by Zecke »

Just bought the game (excelent game as i can see) and trying to lern the mechanichal of the game..I have a question, about attacking (maybe stupid),.... but when you encircle enemys units by 3 spots (or more spots) with for example 9 units, ¿I only have the posibility of attacks from one spot? exits the posibility of attack from 3 spots, for example, at the same time with 9 units at the encircle enemy spot.

what i want to know (lern) is how you combine more spots in the attacking order, because, as far as i know the game, you only can attack from units stacked in only one spot (thats what i believe)..is that correct that only a maximun of 3 units can attack?
or you can combined more units

Thanks for the possibles answers

You have to press shift key and select the units you want to attack with.
You can attack from different hexes only with deliberate attack not hasty attack.

When units are isolated/encircled, their defensive value drops. Therefore, you will - over time - get the feeling how much troops are really needed to force a surrender. Most of the time, there's no need to waste all the movement points of all your units.

Can anyone suggest best settings for Axis or SU for AI campaign games?

Have tried several arrangements for % responding and lo/hi units committed, but not getting improved attacks (GS/Intercept seem OK, though.)
