You can drop one friendly stack onto another friendly stack in another region, to create an intercept situation. However, if the target stack resides in a structure, then you cannot create an intercept.

The only work around which I have found is:

(1) Move the target stack from inside the structure to outside the structure.

(2) Create the intercept.

(3) Move the target stack back into the structure.

This seems a little convoluted and non-obvious to me.

this is with remarks like this one (totally justified) that I see that there is still much to be done with the game engine.

You will also have the problem if you want to target a specific army on a location where several are presents.

I will add your report on our todo list (big and growing). Don't expect the thing to be added before several weeks at least

Yes, I had thought of that case (multiple stacks in a region), but hadn't had a chance to test.

However, my guess is that this might function as a work around.

Option #1:

Place all non-target units in a structure and then drop the interceptor on the stack left outside the structure.

Option #2:

Drag the target stack to another region. Then drop the interceptor stack on the target's waypoint. Then delete the target's movement path.

Maybe I'll give those a try later. After all, not only generals have to show some ingenuity, but game players too!

this will work, except that it's a half solution: you should also be able to target one stack amongst several of an enemy, and in this case you are not allowed to fiddle with their units.

(This is your lucky day - you got me thinking about yet another game design issue! Posting regarding FOW now.)

technically this is more a UI flaw here

post to your liking Mark, I won't promise that everything will be done rapidly, but anything which ought to be fixed will be, in this project or in the next (which has unofficially started...)
