Quick questions about the iPad version

[Beakie]

After playing the 2 tutorial scenarios and 2 of the North African scenarios on the iPad I have a few questions...

1. How do you quickly select a unit? By double tapping on it? Or,single tapping and holding?

2. Does a change to facing cost AP?

3. What is the Scout command for infantry? It doesn't seem to do anything, I thought it was the same as the Hunt command for Tanks am I wrong?

4. When I get fired upon why are the firing units not spotted for return suppressing fire? Or, if it is an ambush situation would I not be able to at least tell what direction the fire is coming from?

5. This is a Tactics question what is the best way to approach an enemy held Objective I mean I know a mad rush is a bad idea. But do I put Infantry out in front of the Tanks? Or, Tanks in front backed by Infantry in transports?

6. And to go along with question 5 how close to a suspected enemy do I bring the transports before I unload so as not to put the Infantry in trouble right away?

That's all I got for now I'm sure I'll have more questions later Thank You....

I'll answer the UI ones .

1 - double tap

2 - nope, turns are free

3 - It allows you to show up units in cover over an area.

4 - if an ambush happens you will see Ambush come up, but it won't necessarily be over the tile that the attacking unit was on

Thankss Pip, for the quick response. One last question (I think...LOL).

In the middle of a scenario is there any way to tell what turn I'm on? Such as turn 5 of 12 remaining. If it is there on the iPad I'm not seeing it. (course at my age that's not saying it isn't there).

Thanks again,

I'm pretty sure any scenarios that have time limits will have an onscreen timer. Otherwise, no, I don't think so.

Cheers

You can see the number of turns left but the turn you're playing no, you must remember how many turns has the scenario and subtract.
A wish could be that the game shows: Current turn/Total turns
