Local reserve

Post by Karri »

I was happily planning my attacks, when I noticed I had accidentally set my arty on local reserve instead of tactical reserve, and also noticed that they were still supporting the battle(in planner..but in actual combat?)...Just wondering, does it work the same way as tactical reserve? Or does the arty on local reserve wander off to counter-attack...?

Originally, you'll remember, in CoW the arty would run into the counter-attack on tac and local reserve. T3 changed it so that on tac reserve the arty would not charge in to counter attack; the arty, will, however, still launch into a counter attack if they are set to local reserve.
To repeat history in a game is to be predictable.
