Buildings on the Battlefield

[HarunTaiwan]

I just fought several battles where the battlefield included buildings.

For example, my army land blockaded a port, and then the enemy came to relieve the blockade, prompting a batlle where there was the actual port on the map (in the playable area.)

Tip: While it might seem like the Port could be a mini fortress, it's actually not a physical barrier. Kind of cool to see units pass through walls.

I also had some weird effects when I had units in a graveyard - but it did work to block the enemy a bit.

I also had some Roman scum hide in a tiny space behind a huge rock in the corner of a battlefield....the rock was cut by the red lines making them impossible to attack.

I have some nice screenshots, but no idea how to post them.

thats bizzare!!! in all my many many campaigns i have never seen a port on the battlefield, ive had rebels who blockade my port & yet when i attack the battle is usually at a crossroads away from the coast, but the rebels have been standing in the port itself hhmmm

This is a shot from inside the port after the battle started.

As you can see, I had my guys facing the wrong way since I thought the Bruti couldn't pass through the Port's walls.

Then the magic window opened up for those pila.

I wish I had an original shot with the port itself.

Here's a shot of those Scipii scum running once I got my guys turned around.

They actually walk through the walls of the port!

You can see some doing this in the background.

I need to get better skillz at screenshots though.

Okay, this is just weird. How come you have to be the special one who gets to fight in a port? And which port was it? Which province/city's port was it?
