No encirclement shift

Unity of Command lets you replay the epic conflict that was the Stalingrad Campaign of World War II. In this turn-based game of strategy and cunning, observe how opportunity leads the German army to advance recklessly into the steppes of southern Russia. And as the story unfolds, join the Soviet campaign to repel the invaders... As these legendary battles play out on the hex board, the tension of decision making and difficulties of conducting operations on a massive scale emerge. Command armies and fronts in maneuver warfare, thrust and encircle, capture cities and cross continents; but never, ever forget to watch your supply lines. The Red Turn expansion ads a gigantic Soviet expansion centered on the Kursk campaign.

No encirclement shift

Post by CptWaspLuca »

Nice game, but I really miss a bonus shift based on encirclement. I would expect to have some operational benefit from attacking the enemy unit from 3 adjacent hexes, and even more if the enemy unit is encircled. This is a very common approach, I remember that the situation is handled in this manner in many Matrix games.
