withdrawal....there's something I don't understand

[jack54]

Hi again,

In the image below I would like to move the US 3rd (Red circle) NW to meet up and assist the British 8th.

If I select attack I can only go North (Blue circle).
If I select Withdrawal the hexes highlight as in the image but I cannot move either NW or NE.
I get no option to reinforce adjacent.

Am I missing something.... is there anyway (in the situation below) to move NW or NE? Sorry if this is an issue already discussed.

Two things, first, the two hexes marked X shouldn't be highlighted. This is the issue I mentioned before about withdrawals that has been fixed for 1.01

Second, no, you can't move from ZoC to ZoC. So your only choices are to attack the enemy unit directly north or withdraw into one of the three highlighted hexes not marked with an X.

Thanks Frank.... I thought I read something about a friendly unit negating Enemy ZOC.I also thought I'd be able to support the 'adjacent hex' but that option is not available.

As long as it's WAD[:)]

That's a change in 1.01.

I should add, if you weren't in an enemy ZoC you'd be able to reinforce that friendly adjacent unit.
