Question: Recon button - O.Schmidt - 01-09-2016 Hello I'm new here! Question: I can not find info in the manual about the Recon button! How does this and what is happening there? Thanks!

If it is a Recon unit and you choose this action there is a chance this unit will spot concealed enemy units. Seems this should be explained in the manual along with some idea of how likely they are to spot the enemy.

The ones with those tiny binoculars in their sidebar icon? This should not only be in the manual, but probably also in one of the tutorials. It feels like this is a major game changer for an army on the offensive. RE: Question: Recon button - GerryM - 01-09-2016 Will say Recon Unit in the unit info box. RE: Question: Recon button - Al - 01-09-2016 Select the unit - go to the Command menu - select recon spotting. This is in the Program Help manual. RE: Question: Recon button - GerryM - 01-09-2016 But where in the manual explain what happens when you execute the command. RE: Question: Recon button - Al - 01-09-2016 Selecting Recon Spotting will attempt to spot enemy units within the Line-of- Sight of the selected recon units at the cost of 1/3 of the movement allowance of the units. The probability of spotting the enemy units will depend on the distance from the recon unit to the enemy unit, the terrain that the enemy unit is in, the strength of the recon unit, and its quality and fatigue. Note: Recon units are designated as such in the alternate Unit Box display. As I said, this is in the Program help manual RE: Question: Recon button - GerryM - 01-09-2016 Thanks. I was looking in the User Manual available online. Didn't realize there was another one. RE: Question: Recon button - Al - 01-09-2016 (01-09-2016, 07:48 AM)GerryM Wrote: Thanks.

Open up your game folder and you will find 11 PDF manuals/files. Some have to do with using the editor. |
