I miss it too! It was always a blast mopping up a bunch of units with a chain of overrun attacks.

Any thoughts? Is there a support email address I should use in lieu of posting in this forum?

I also should mention that I have User Control Panel > Board preferences > Edit posting defaults > Notify me upon replies by default set to Yes.

My "User Control Panel" shows me subscribed to a couple topics, but I have received no emails for any of the responses. I also looked through the settings but nothing jumped out at me. Can anyone point me in the correct direction?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Dino, comforts me to know that other people also thought it confusing, so do not feel so stupid. His image with annotations was very decisive. Thank you! But still did not understand the function of "time", because after a few turns comes another message saying that the time is up. You...

@BiteNibbleChomp - Thanks for pointing out community created content!

Ha! I *should* be happy with the computer doing the calculations for me, but the game provides more insight into it's calculations than PG2 does. So now it has me curious!

Tarrak, thanks for the reply, and the welcome! You mentioned air units; I assumed that they do not factor into surrender calculations. Am I incorrect?

And I agree that presenting some of these mechanics in an easy to read explanation could be a challenge.

I found the Combat Details and Initiative Explained Parts 1 and 2 threads (Matrix Games forums/tm.asp?m=2994803 and Slitherine forum/viewtopic.php?f=121&t=34568) via the FAQ (Slitherine forum/viewtopic.php?f=121&t=27283), and I now believe I understand the initiative part of the Combat Detai...

Page 27, section 6.2 of the manual states, "If all retreat hexes are blocked with impassable terrain or enemy units, the unit will surrender (i. e. will be instantly destroyed)." I just had a unit surrender that was fully suppressed and completely surrounded by units, half of which were fr...
