Questions on Taking Charge..
Posted: Tue May 04, 2010 2:23 pm
I play issuing orders through messenger and a 60 yard camera redius from me. In the McPherson Ridge scenario, I highlighted Archer and clicked the TC Flag button. I notice a messenger was sent out. OK. I then issued a movement order by clicking on the terrain and then clicking line formation. Two more messengers were sent out. Nothing happened. Archer just sat there with his brigade in line formation behind the creek. What am I doing wrong?
Also, I am having a heck of a time moving my arty units. I have tried to do so by issuing a movement order to the commander and then clicking the unlimber in line formation at that point. Some time they do nothing, other times they move a short ways then unlimber and begin firing again. Do I need to issue an order to each individual battery? To much micromanagement for me. Is the TC button supposed to light up? I don't think mine does when I click it but as I said a messenger is sent out as if I have to send a messenger to notify a unit that I have TCed it.
Please give me some guidance here?
