What does the attack after one turn flag do?

[Kal-el]

Why would you flag a unit with this? What is the advantage/disadvantage?

Do you mean 'Turn to Attack' flag? I think this is just instructions telling the computer it has an animation that turns sideways to attack, like a Man O'War giving a broadside to an enemy ship. Other than that, it probably doesn't have any affect on play.

 

[Kal-el]

yeah thats what I meant. I was at work and couldn't remember the exact phrasing.

that's lame! shouldn't that be handled just by the animation? I was hoping for more.

oh well.

thanks for the response.

Thank you!

I thought it meant "anti-Blitz" or something like that.

The English language has got half a million living words (and yet as manydead ones) but that hardly seems enough.
