(None)

@Dexander, it's your turn. You have $20 in your treasury.

 

[Dexander]

I'll give my orders tomorrow, sorry for the delay and thanks for patience.

 

[ThunderHawk3]

In response to an inquiry, I'd like to make clear that tokens (including Blitzkrieg tokens and paratroopers, which are a bit like tokens) cannot be purchased as reinforcements.

We established this last game over PM, but I'm not sure it was ever publicly announced. I'd like to clarify that now.

Question: Can engineers disable enemy minefield if its occupied?

 

[Dexander]

And SORRY about the delay had a really busy weekend.

 

[Gen. Marshall]

Question: Can engineers disable enemy minefield if its occupied?

Yeah, but they'll automatically attack said occupying unit after disabling the mines.

 

[Gen. Marshall]

Question: I can buy roads?

Not anymore, you can only do that in the Diplomacy turn. However, you can still construct roads using your engineers.

 

[Dexander]

Found it out myself too

 

[Dexander]

Sorry for being noob, I'll give my orders soon.

 

[Gen. Marshall]

Found it out myself too

Ah, I see

Sorry for being noob, I'll give my orders soon.

Haha that's not a problem... not a problem at all

clear minefield 04.05

I assume you mean 04.03?

Funny to see how many paras people seem to have bought. They're definitely a very interesting unit. Now let's see if 4 of them are going to be enough

 

[Dexander]

03.06 to 03.04 to 04.04 clear minefield 04.03

 

[ThunderHawk3]

There is an additional problem with your orders which I'll discuss with you over PM, Dexander.

EDIT: Actually it's technically public knowledge so I can discuss it publicly. There is already an unrevealed non-unit at 03.04, so you can't build a road there. Roads can't overlap with non-units such as Industrial Centers, supply caches, minefields, and decoys acting as non-units.

EDIT2: I just noticed a second problem with your orders, which is you're attacking from 04.04 while you already have a unit in that hex. You moved your engineer at 03.06 to 04.04 to clear the minefield at 04.03, then also moved another unit to 04.04 to attack. You can't attack from a hex that has two units in it. Units can move through each others' hexes but that's it. They can't act while the hex is "overloaded."

Gotta love the forums right now. It's almost like P'dox just released a major title.

And my internet is all slow, almost like I'm downloading some major - oh... right...
