Units with ADD

Post by Khadrelt »

Is there any way to get your units to stay watching a certain direction? I line up half my archers watching one way and the other half the other way, but invariably when one line starts shooting at something the other line turns around to watch, allowing enemies to sneak up behind them unless constantly turned back around. Can they be made to pay attention to their own duty and not let their attention wander?

did you try selecting them and hitting the g key ?

or maybe they need a scout out front of them.... to allert them to stop spectateting
if one does not learn from the failings of the past they are likely to suffer its return.

Yes, I tried G. They don't walk, but they still turn around.

A scout might work - I'll have to try that.

No, haven't found that yet. Do you have to beat Mazz 6 in Legendary solo to get that?

lol ahh I remember that all the time with my archers, no matter how much I tried to make them stare one way, when something caught one of the group's eyes, EVERYONE had to see what's going on.
