Marked hexes (A, B, C) should be more visible...

Post by timek28 »

Does someone else agree that marked hexes could be a bit more visible on strategic map (this applies also to VHs)? I mean especially in the snow, it is hard to manually count every one of those hexes in scenarios where you have to destroy all the units on hexes A, and you are unsure weather you found out where all hexes A are... It is not impossible to find out all marked hexes but it is pretty inconvinient.

Also there are some scenarios that say DV if only N enemy units remain... And the scenario is defensive. But how can we know for sure how many enemy units remain? There could be 10 enemy units in FOW spawns. rear guards or whatnot and you think you got them all. Also you cannot afford to launch counterratack and find out by counting manually (again) since you are at the end of resources. There should be count or something for such thing (evacuations also)...

You should be able to hover over hex or click to see the detail on the right menu.

That function should be there for those scenarios.

This issue of not knowing how many enemies there are still to kill is quite annoying.
In Beda Fomm (Allied Corps) I thought I had squashed every last Italian on the map. It comes up with "Loss" so I click on view map. Turns out there was another 30 of them hiding in the corner. :(

I haven't noticed that. When I hover over the hex, I just see type of the hex (clear, forest, hills etc) and coordinates... Even if the hex is marked A, B C the same thing is stated, so I don't really understand what you mean by detail on the right menu.
