You can disembark only in a city. If you are in a city and it does not work, please send a save to rudankort@rsdn.ru. Thx!

Too late for release, I guess, but for future, could INF type units be allowed to disembark from trains (sans transport) in any hex? If the cities at either end of a unit's line are captured by the enemy they are completely stuck. Bad planning on one hand but an infantry unit is not going to stay on the train - they'll get off an fight on foot. Of course, any unit that has transport would find it hard to get them off but, even then, I think they could find a way. What do you think?

I would like the ability to disembark infantry anywhere on a mainline. Tanks and Artillery should disembark/embark at a city IMO. I looked in the manual and found no info on city requirement.
Thank you for reply.

Well, I had suggested much earlier that being able to damage rail lines would be a good tactic. Then the infantry could disembark, repair the rails, and resume their journey. That may come in an expansion, as well as being able to blow bridges, dig trenches, mines, oops got carried away, sorry.

Hi Chief.

Everybody calls PG a beer and pretzels game, but I like to think of it as baby steps. Release the game as a redo of the timeless classic, and then keep adding improvements with each release. The developers have been great at adding things already, can`t wait to see this game system mature.
Personally I am hoping for something from the Cold War era, I want a fleet of SU25`s
