Not sure what I am missing here, but I cant seem to finish my move

Post by SwissQueso »

I activated my system, I picked the units I want to move, but continue still seems to be greyed out.

I have a feeling I am maybe missing something basic.

Previous turns, I did activate my home system and played warfare to get rid of the token, so thats me thinking its maybe a bug.

Help!

What happens if you click the active system (outlined in orange)? It should draw a yellow arrow when you do that, showing the path of your move.

The intended flow fo the movement system goes like this:

Step 1: Choose system to activate.
Step 2: Choose system to move units from.
Step 3: Click one system at a time to draw the move path, using the "+" buttons to transport units along the way.
Step 4: End the move path at the active system.
Step 5: Go back to step 2 if more units need moved.


If you still have trouble, let me know and I can get some screenshots.

Oh that was it! Thank you! Sorry, I thought since I activated that system it was pretty clear where my units were going. Im guessing there is a reason you designed it this way. Maybe units with more movement?

One final question, I want to finish my action, but it seems it only wants me to pass. Ill admit, I could only really activate my homesystem and not build or move anything there. This is mostly just habit and maybe to do a trade before I pass. Maybe I am playing the rules wrong. But is this possible?

Fake edit; I just realized everyone else passed in my game, ignore me.

Right, in some situations units can have a very high move value. An upgraded cruiser using Gravity Drive has 4 movement, which is enough to go through the active system, pick up an infantry on the other side, then double back.
