tip: Be sure to keep brigades and their
commanders close together. Units fight
better when they are next to their own
brigade, and brigade commanders have a
positive effect on units in the surrounding
hexes. This becomes especially important
during melee and when checking morale
against disruption and rout.
tip: Surround enemy units to destroy and/or
capture them. As in most war games, units
have a "zone of control" (ZOC). Opposing
units must stop upon entering a ZOC, and
units with a failing-morale check cannot
retreat from a ZOC. Once caught in the ZOC,
these units are trapped like roaches in a
Roach Motel. This is an easy way to inflict
lots of casualties without causing extensive
damage to your own units.
