Help needed

Hi

As I am pretty new in the WIR game, I can't tell if the following issues are bugs. Maybe its just me who need to do some more reading in the manual.

1) When I try to bomb a bridge I get this message: -Not allowed- According to the manual enemy controlled bridges can be bombed when a Fighterbomber or levelbomber is ordered on interdiction mission. But it doesn't work for me. Has this option been changed in a update, or am I missing something?

2) How do I attach a HQ unit to another supreme HQ. Example: Lets say I play German in the 41 Campaign and that I want to move the 18th Army from Army group North to Army group South

Hi Hans-Brink,

The bridgebombing thing is an errror in the manual. You cannot bomb bridges in WiR (and you never could, I think). The interdiction command can only be used to bomb enemy corps/armies or HQ units.

2) How do I attach a HQ unit to another supreme HQ. Example: Lets say I play German in the 41 Campaign and that I want to move the 18th Army from Army group North to Army group South
Move the cursor over the HQ unit you want to reattach (18. Army), then press Alt-H. On the bottom of the screen there should appear something like "Move curosr to new HQ unit". Now you can click on the new supreme HQ (AG South). That's it, it's the same procedure as reattaching a corps to another HQ.
BTW, you can pop-up a list with all command-shortcuts by pressing /

Regards
Ray

I'll add these comments to the FAQ's.
