Because it shouldn't be happening, the default shouldn't be to the roads. 30 years in the military and we avoided roads if we could because they were easy to mine or interdict. 3 tours in Iraq proved that to be very true. Same for Afghanistan. Yet in this wargame, which yes I get is a game, it's the opposite, roads are the fastest way to to go, so off go the units. And it's easy to forget that the game does this because logically to me it makes no sense. |
Well then, think of it this way: why should every unit (especially green or poorly trained units) know to instinctively avoid the roads in a combat situation? |
Define green units? Even untested units have the training and the doctrine is taught to them. Now if your idea of green is the militia or "rebel" groups, then that could be a case for the default, but why would that be for "First or Second" world militaries that would train to avoid areas that would have then under the LOS of their enemies?
