This "moving without attacking" Vanheim thing is driving me up the damn wall. Is there any way I can set it so they just naturally move and THEN I can set them to sneak if I want to?

Nix, of course, CTRL+leftclick or use the "Move" order manually after you have set them to sneaking into an enemy province, by clicking on the commander's orders.

Nix · #**124** March 5th, 2007, 08:23 PM

I know I can change it afterwards, but I keep forgetting that a regular click just makes them sneak around like the sneaky bastards they are.

I'm having the same problem with the Ulmish armies Nix - so you aren't alone

I remember playing Man in another game and I had the same problem, I then got illusionists and they where exactly the same.

The only solution I found was a double check of my orders using F1, just look for sneak, then double check you actually want them to be sneaky.

I learned to play C'tis for this game. They are real fun, but it's ashame I couldn't last longer. I was looking forward to their middle/late game. Starting next to Helheim rushing me, and Mictlan with no where to grow to except through my lands is no good. I'm gonna hold on a couple more turns hopefully, but the lizard men are soon to be done for.

Put a non-stealth troop in with each commander and they will un-sneakify them. This is even better with glamour since the enemy STILL can't see your troops, as opposed to normal sneaking guys.

Sorry BigD, you got a rough start. Nice crushing of my first attack though, I must say that I was unpleasantly surprised by that (and the battle report from when I lost that merc company scared the heck out of me).

BigDisAwesome · #**129** March 5th, 2007, 10:13 PM

Yeah I was pleased with what I got done. I coulda done a couple things different I suppose, but I don't think much of anything could withstand the starting position I got.

Why don't you all just get used to ALWAYS use CTRL+leftclick for movement orders and only release the CTRL key when you really want to move stealthy units, like scouts?
