I am looking to attack Brest Litovsk. I press A and call up a list of units. There are four possible attackers, although nothing is selected. But look at the odds?

Is there any reason why this would appear like this. I previously attacked the city and the defenders held as the attackers ran out of Action Points. Those units are still in place around the city obviously but cannot attack.

This are the stacking points fro your previous attack. They will be reset in the next turn. It is supposed to stop you from attacking the same hex over and over again without facing stacking penalties in your subsequent attacks.

Okay thanks.

Check manual page 122

5.2.9 Stacking
Battlestack points are the carry over stacking
points from previous battles within the hex. If, for
example, you first attacked with 100 stack points
of units and lose (irrelevant if you win ‘cause you
capture the hex). Launching a second attack (same
hex) with 75 stack points will result in you having
175 stacking points (the 75 for this attack and the
100 for the previous).

Thanks. Sadly still waiting for my printed manual - so trying to play largely with use of the tutorials and online help only. I cannot wait to get my hands on the manual!
