Victory Point Hexes

Post by milesjb »

I’ve searched this forum and checked the manual without success. How do you find the victory point hexes on the map. Is it the hexes with flags? If so how do we know how many points are gained. Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question but it’s just not clear to me.

I suggest using the strategic map to determine values. You can also view hex and will see a flag under the terrain that shows number of VP's.

Also, you can go to the 'Towns' tab on the strategic map and scroll through the towns to quickly view their hex info (and it also shows VPs for the location)

Well, now that I know how to check the hex information for victory status, I've discovered that the victory point hexes are the ones with the little flags in them. You don't need to check the mini-map. They're all displayed right pn thr strategic/tactical map.
