Well then, is it so that some air units can fire at an opponent that is directly beneath it, and others can't? Or what does it depend on?
I think an Orca cannot do that. When I play them, they always seem to have to be on an empty field themselves to be able to start to fire, if I am not mistaken.

It simply depends on who’s in the hex first. First unit reserves the right to stand there, other units can only pass by, if not blocked.

- 7 years agoMister Crac you sound so clueless, like you have no idea what the OP is saying and then you continue being clueless of what others are explaining lolEvery single air unit that can shoot ground can shoot units walking under them IF they have stopped themselves, why would they not be? lol So you are telling me I can micro a unit under an Orca that's staying still and it can't shoot it? This is *, of course it will wreck it with its missiles. So a microed Pitbull can kill an Orca 100 % of the time if you micro it under him? Nope.Also OP is just wanting to nerf the Liang Drone, and I actually agree with this. It should not be able to heal 7 units at the same time, this might be a good change, so if you micro it over your army it won't fully heal the ones directly under it.

Or, y'know, maybe the design rules of this game are just full of illogical nonsense.
If an Orca can fire at a ground unit that is directly beneath it, then why can I not move an Orca on top of a, say, MLRS and fire at it?
This design rule "Two units cannot be in the same hex field at the same time, but hey, if at least one of them is moving then they suddenly can be!" is really just blatant nonsense.

The thing is "Two units cannot be in the same hex field at the same time" holds true if neither are moving, if one of them is moving, then its possible for a predator to move past your rhino without any issues and a banshee can cross over a lone missile 'trooper' (one member left in the squad) to engage a titan in the distance. Ground units block enemy ground units and air units block enemy air units. The only way to block either an air unit or a ground unit with the other is that the unit that's supposed to block should arrive at the intended tile before the other unit could.
