Attacking from multiple hexes

[robertkeller]

I apologize for taking up your time...but I haven't played in 3 1/2 years and I forget how to attack from more than one hex...can someone give me simple directions. And I didn't find that discussed in Ground Combat in the manual. Thanks.

You can either use the "UP" arrow command on the top of the game browser. This is actuated by the mouse or use the "shift" key I think. MAybe its Control. I just do it automatically so I don't recall exactly. Think its shift. Hold down the key as you select other hexes to attack from. Hope that helps.

It is shift. You also need enough movement points left for the unit in order to do a deliberate attack (hasty is not possible with multiple hexes): 6 movement points for regular infantry and 16 for armor/mech/motor/cavalry.

depending on the boundary conditions of the hexes. If you attack across a minor river it's 7 for infantry. across major rivers it is even more..

Ok. Got it. Hit the arrow,hold shift,select units to do battle.These units appear on the right side. THEN WHAT?How do I pull off the attack?

[Darojax]

Right click on the hex you want to attack. You really should read the manual.
