Digging in

[Kartoffel]

You can't dig in during the game, but you can use tactics, technology and terrain to your advantage. To do this you need to know a few simple game terms.

Full stop - means no fast movement the turn before. No weapon accuracy penalty, no terrain protection penalty.

Short stop - means fast movement the turn before but no movement on the current turn. Some penalty on weapon accuracy and terrain protection.

Moving - means your unit has a specific velocity greater than 0.You are penalized, both by receiving greatly lowered terrain protection and receiving a much lower weapon accuracy rating. Penalization severity depends on velocity. A greater velocity receives greater penalty.

Certain advanced technologies can overcome Short stop and Moving weapon accuracy penalty.

Trenches can overcome Short stop and Moving terrain protection penalty.
