Strategic Movement

OK, this sometimes work and sometimes doesn't.

Strategic movement simulates rail movement and your rail movement points reflect how much movement you can make. This is my understanding.

I can not move any German or Austrian units more than one hex with strategic movement. I think I see how this should work when I can transport my Ottoman artillery unit 8 or so hexes in one turn. I pick strategic move. The unit moves and then I pick it again and move the unit another hex. It leaves behind a little "ghost" trail as it goes. Is this the way it should work?

I can not move my German or Austrian INF corps more than a single hex even with a swarm of rail points remaining. I can select Strategic Movement. Move the unit. Then when I try and select it again it isn't there as an option.

Am I missing something here?

Hi ICLK,

I guess you've already figured it out by yourself now, if not I hope this can be helpful: Right click the selected unit,choose strategic movement from the popup menu, left click on the desired hex you want to strat move the unit to. With regards to the art. unit, I'm not sure, maybe you can move art. after strategic movement, I don't remember.

The ART unit and the INF do seem to move differently. If I'd tried to strat move the INF first I would have figured it out but once I moved that ART unit I kept trying to make the INF move the same way.

Arty and Inf should both move the same via strategic movement. Is it possible the destination hex isn't eligible?
