Battlefield (a grid of 28 x 20 squares).
Battle messages (blank space on the left).The combat screen has three main components. This section discusses the combat screen interface. The player has no control over the actions of their troops during combat, but will be shown how the battle progresses. Combat resolution is automatically handled by the battle AI. Unless you are playing a network game, in which case the player gets a message and a chance to view the combat at the beginning of his next turn. This makes it possible to move several armies to attack a single enemy army simultaneously.Ĭombat resolution is displayed at the end of the turn in the Combat Screen. Whenever an army enters combat, a symbol of crossed swords is placed over the square until the end of the player’s turn when combat is resolved. For this reason keeping scouts or other units with Acute Senses or Spirit Sight in an army is important. When this happens, the combat begins as an Ambush. In network multiplayer games it is possible to attack together with your ally.Ĭombat can be initiated unintentionally if an army moves into a square containing stealthy or invisible units that it cannot see. In single player games and hotseat games you can defend together with your ally but you cannot attack together. The armies of allied players can move through the same squares and stay in the same square and will defend the square against enemy attacks as a single force. Initiating combat uses up all of the army’s remaining Action Points.Ī special case of initiating combat is when more than two different factions are involved. Whoever moves into the square occupied by the army of another player, independent or special monsters is the attacker. In CoE5, combat is initiated whenever two armies that are not allied move into the same square.
