How works reinforcements??

Post by balenami1291 »


When reinforcements arrive I can see the little icon in the active item bar at top left of the screen.

it seems nothing happens. my combat performance doesn't improve.

If I right click on the icon on the top left description tells me "needs 3 AP to activate" but it's already in the active icons' bar...

Sorry I'm a stupid merchant and I'm not so skilled in combat but i don't understand how it works.

You have no control over the reinforcement , they will fire on their own and sometimes they do manage to save the day !!!

Forget about the 3AP ..probably will be fix in the next patch

I just started a new game as a merchant, so I may be way off base but....

I think reinforcements don't give any plus in fleeing. Hopefully they can batter the attacker while I try to flee.
But I don't just flee every turn... what I'm doing is playing a defensive battle. I'll turn on every defensive thing I have then alternate between firing a missle and trying to flee. I've managed to kill a couple attackers, but the real goal in firing the missles is to cause him to use AP's defeating the missle rather than shooting at me.
