HQ Ranger Overlay?

Post by jarmenia »

Is there any kind of overlay that shows the range of HQs like there is for supply?

No, there isn't. However it is not hard to calculate or see the effect of the HQ distance.

Each HQ commands 100% effectively in a range of 3 hexes. For each hex beyond those, the effect of the HQ decreases 20%, until it reaches 0. The effect of the HQ is also listed on the individual units.

Ok, thanks. I know its not hard to calculate, but it would also be helpful to find a units HQ when the get separated.

If you click on the HQ name on the unit you want to know where its HQ is, it will take you to it.
