    Default Using walls as cover

    Sorry if this has been done to death.

    I'm struggling with this. I can (sometimes) place my units behind a wall to use it as cover, but I can only put them on one side of the wall and not the other.

    This is OK if the enemy are coming from that direction, but its crazy if they are coming at me from behind and I cant get my units to go the other side of the wall.

    I hope that all makes sense - anyone else having the same problem???

    Keep your mouse button held down when clicking the wall, while holding it move your mouse to choose which side you want.

    Either

    1) Hold down right click on the wall and you can figure out the rest

    2) Hold down right click on the other side of the wall and place your guys right behind it.

    Try holding down the right mouse button when you give the move command and dragging it to the side you want to be on. That worked for me yesterday.

    why not just place another wall behind them in pre-deployment?......

    Read a napoleonic first hand account of a Hessian serving under the french flag

    Athenians: For ourselves, we shall not trouble you with specious pretenses - either of how we have a right to our empire because we overthrew the Mede, or are now attacking you because of wrong that you have done us- and make a long speech which would not be believed;.......... since you know as well as we do that right, as the world goes, is only in question between equals in power, while the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must.
