Reasons why and how much units to place at frontier facing the enemy
-
Call me stupid but...
Is there any reason to put a unit in your own frontier territory other than to prevent blitz units to eventually break through to conquer empty territories? Are there reasons why you eventually dont put any unit in such territory?
Is it obligatory to put at least one low cost unit in a territory facing the enemy? -
@torpedoa you are also keeping a certain amount of pressure on the front
-
@ubernaut Right. Didnt think about that. But what if the pressure is coming from the enemy? Image a huge enemy stack of units coming at you, and he doesnt have blitz units, do you still put 1 single unit in the territory? Or would it be better to save that hitpoint?
That would be the core question of mine. -
@torpedoa if there are no blitz units, I would retreat. However, maybe he wants his stack to go elsewhere in a close battle ?
He'd have to ignore or send 3 dudes to be sure, usually, to kill the blocker. Can the blocker counterattack if ignored ?
Maybe you have reinforcements coming to that TTy and you can just ignore the blocker.
Without knowing the game, retreat most likely, be my guess
