Help With Movement

Frank Hunter's Campaigns on the Danube is an operational study of the campaigns along the Danube in 1805 and 1809. Campaigns on the Danube's system focuses on trying to present the player with the same sort of decisions placed on their historical counterparts; how to feed an army and move that army according to a plan, all the while trying to fight a campaign. There is also an option to allow players to play out the battles with miniatures and input the results.

Help With Movement

Post by Spartan07 »

HI,

I am sure this is goint to be a real newbie question but here goes anyhow.

When I order a corps to move they all obviously move at different speeds. Is there an option to have the corps move at the slowest units speed?

Nego,
You shouldn't expect corps to march around all nice and stacked in the same hex. Think of corps marching in column, with some units leading others and some units following the leaders. While a bit frustrating this really models movement far more realistically than games where you have perfect control over every unit's movement path and endpoint each turn. [;)]

This is also one of the strong suites of the game. It is far more realistic.

Also, If you tell a corps to go somewhere it will arrive, but as Eric said, the trailing collumns need to catch up.

Along with the stragglers and dropouts if you are moving fast
