rotor911 Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 I'm wondering about fortresses. Given the difference of size with other divisions, it would seem logical that it would require more than 1 troop berthing but since it's SN world... Did someone try to EAF or LC one?

I have tried. And to my delight, the Fortress did indeed only take up one troop berthing. Under the circumstances, I think one should always have at least one Fortress division available for one's invasion force! TErnest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TErnest Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 When I loaded the Fortress onto a transport, it was via an EAF order, along with several other divisions in the same army group. It worked fine. Any why not? A Fortress is just another division type, albeit a very capabable, and exptremely expensive one. Yes, you can LC divisions directly from a population center's stockpiles (not from an army group) as well. I have done so a number of times. And I have no reason to suspect that it would not work for a Fortress. Just never actually tried to load a Fortress via an LC.

hobknob Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Fortress is the combat unit; Fortification is an installation you build to augment your combat units. Fortress units load fine with LC orders. They also EAF just fine as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
