Flight + attack rear - Page 2

Hmmm... Maybe, I`m wrong, but looks like AI`s desire to follow your orders based on unit`s experience. Heroes and squads with 2+ stars are more likely to do what I want: outflank, attack rear or else
May somebody check it?

isn't it based on morale? So the stars help there.

Enemy commanders can only be targetted by Attack Large Enemy Monsters and presumably Attack Cavalry and Attack Flyers - assuming no non-commanders of these types are present.

When determining 'rearmost' your unit ignores all commanders and only considers units of troops. (I don't know that flyers can actually get distracted, although flankers certainly can).

my god another epiphany

I recently assigned "Attack Large Enemy Monsters" for my flying SC (50morale & 3stars) to kill Pangaea's Pans who had the most life in the enemy army, but he never went after them.

Well, it is probably just a check to see if you ignore orders, and not a morale check. Or else undead would always follow orders.

Ain't "large monster" size 4 and more ?

I think pans are only size 3.

I think target large monster just picks the highest size + hp on the battle and attacks that.

Kasnavada probably has a point, size 3 isn't really a large enemy monster, and while it will *tend* to focus on them if larger monsters aren't present, it doesn't specifically target them. At least that's my impression.

I thought I've seen it somewhere, soooo... I checked the manual. What it says : Large monster are size 5 and 6, and "will take size 4 if none present". Probably won't take size 3 then.
