Newbie Question: Attack Benefit

[jfp3]

Excellent words Ylvali, thanks. I have a huge force coming at me at like 4-1 odds, but they are mostly Missile units. I'm looking forward to the next turn (30 mins or so to answer). I've implemented a +30 PD, and have units incoming at the same time (assuming they will attack this turn). On his flank about 3 provinces away come 2 large forces of mine unhindered. I wonder if the enemy will divert? At this point his fate is sealed (I think), but the play out of his death-throes is the kind of gaming that we live for~~~ This battle at 3-1 is in a "pass" and I can't help but think of the movie "300".
