Artillery with 0 supply and 0 shells can still surprise attack units?

Post by Tanaka »

Can this be changed? Finding after changing AP and spotting playing whack a mole with an artillery unit that refuses to die.

I think there will still be a surprise encounter, but that is the case if any previously unseen enemy unit is run into.

In terms of combat, it should be performing very badly (assuming your units are better off in most respects) and if you place two front line units next to the zero supply unit then it should start suffering attrition losses and it may even surrender.

Yes it is not doing anything to me and normally any unit can surprise but not attack if they cannot win and you can still get an attack in. With the artillery unit it always attacks no matter what and you cannot get an attack in.

Thanks Tanaka, I can confirm this and will correct it for the next build.
