i would like to request formation movement...

[solipse49]

i dont know if grouping fixes this,somehow im unable to group...(after setting change)
but right now when you order your infantry to disembark,and then hunt the enemy.
the apc's rush infront....
they should attack at same speed...in formation..
specially for the they guys with the little chain icon...
if the armor just rushes out ahead...its useless.
and just gets picked off easy...
so i would like to request formation movement.
specially for meat wave assults... or large group assults.
where i can order the apc's and the infantry to attack at the same speed.
and prefer to pick placement,like apc's int front or back...

Improved movement in general would be nice. There are several weird iteration of that.

But in your case you need to control the transport seperatly anyway.
No matter how dire the situation is, this one dude with always find time to shoot at your transport. You would need them to be a couple of hundreds meters behind your inf to support them proberly.

But i like your idea.

I 100 percent concur, there needs to be a pacing option for combined arms assaults etc..

I second that. An option to move at the speed of slowest unit in the selection/group would be great.

[Green Raven]

This would be great

I may be full of ♥♥♥♥ but i think if you give the infantry a move or hunt and then give the apc a move order onto the infantry the apc will follow the infantry

I dont know if you are correct or not, sir, but as a lifelong Wedge Antilles fan I feel I must challenge you to a duel.

Nope, everything goes it's own speed, and you can only Q move infantry since they don't have a separate road speed.

People have been asking for this for 14 years or so and Eugen have never considered it.

Microing all those separate units is what the game is about apparently.

You can have units move at the same speed by ordering a faster unit to "follow" a slower unit.

For APCs/IFVs, press the "Attack Move" hotkey and select an infantry unit, and the APC will follow the infantry, providing fire support as it goes.
