Land attack factors-LAtt/ Land defence factors- LDef/ stacking limits- Video Tutorial 6 0:58:35 ff
Dear All,
watching the very nicely done video tutorial 6, I stumbled across something I found rather puzzling.
Steve is just explaining the summary of unit/ hex under the cursor in the main form and moves to a german 4 stack hex.
Then we see ( and Steve tells us too ) LAtt 7, LDef 14 which does not really make sense to me ( there´s a 6 strength inf as top counter ). What kind of units could the 6 strength unit be stacked with to run up to these factors.
Furthermore the display seems to indicate no air factors. So how could the hex stack 4 units?
What might I be missing?
Can anybody help?
Thanks in advance!

You are doubled in Swamp and Mountain hexes for example.
Mountain units are tripled in defense in mountain hexes.

Hi Zorachus,
thanks!
Sadly enough - no swamps or mountains in Belgium. It´s a clear hex.
That won´t do the trick. Furthermore there´s the stacking thing.
Best regards

Hi Paul,
I´d have to look, but across a river would be attacker halved - not the other way around - I guess.
And the stacking thing doesn´t make sense any way you look at it. I just closed the tutorial, but I recall Steve explicitly saying " the hex contains 4 units " and something in the way of - no air units.
A puzzle...
Best regards

Where (what time) does this appear in the tutorial - I'd like to take a look, see if I can help. What is it that makes you think there are no aircraft in the stack?

Good point on the river, my bad. OK how about anti-tank or AA units that are doubled against potential Armor/Mech units? (C'mon I'm dyin' here - throw me a bone! [:)])
Of maybe the Tutorial was done back when there was some kind of a bug in the game that since has been eradicated. Some of them were done quite awhile ago.

there is a port in that hex ..
maybe a captured convoy
and one of the land units in the hex is disrupted, so 7 attack/14 defence

Well that's clear! No aircraft and no ships.... paulderynck maybe right that this was done sometime ago and was not bug free when recorded. Or could it be a fort?

I think Michael got it. A disorganized land unit is certain. Then it might be a disorganized naval or air unit.

Hi Paul,
I tried to work on the AA/ AT assumption too. Math doesn´t work out. Furthermore - as far as I can see - we are not in the land attack phase. It´s general information about the hex ( I would think so - at least ).
Maybe a bug, maybe long gone... - but I am very careful here, after all the "bug reports" - a bug ... a bug ... - which turned out to be - oops didn´t quite have the rules present.
Going through MWIF I´ve stumbled across at least a dozen items ( some not small ) that I didn´t "get" in 20 years of wiffing - and I should have, knowing some guys who really know their way around the game.
Best regards

Hi Michael (and Orm),
that makes sense - thanks!
No bug and I have not gone mad.
What a day!
Cheers

I´ll take you up on that...
And mind you - there will be a lot of questions.
Setting up the hardware on monday...
But jokes aside - from all I see to this point - it´s a beauty isn´t it!!!
