Units can take cover both behind obstacles and inside fully-destructible buildings. France’s large, dense hedgerows present impassible barriers. Terrain plays a large role in each battle, and is largely modeled after actual aerial photographs (but tweaked in some areas for balance reasons).
Key factors that influence unit stress include terrain, position, experience, and leadership. It’s also possible to capture enemy units by surrounding them and forcing them to surrender.Įugen’s desire is to skew towards historical accuracy over what they referred to as the contrived, 'rock-paper-scissors' balancing of other RTSes. It is also possible, of course, to force a unit to take so much stress that they start to withdraw from the battlefield (or at least to a more defensible location). Light infantry under fire from a heavy machine gun will become pinned down, unable to move or contribute much to the battle, which allows a smart commander to take units out of the fight indefinitely without necessarily routing or killing them. Similar to games like Company of Heroes, units will act with self-preservation based on the battlefield situation. The core combat revolves around the concept of stress.
