    In this game (http://www.wargear.net/games/player/3776), I just attacked from Destroyer Guns to Barcelona with 3 units.  Before the attack, I had 6 and the Barcelona had 2.  I attacked with 3 and lost 1 unit, but nothing happened to Barcelona.  I paused the game right after this roll.

    Hmm, well technically that's by design, not a bug. You rolled 5,5,2 and the Barcelona rolled a 6 only.

    This is because you're attacking across an artillery border with abandon off so you're only allowed to reduce the target territory to minimum 1 unit. Hence when you attacked with 3 units the Barcelona only defended with 1 unit as if it defended with 2 it could potentially lose both units and be left unoccupied.

    If you think this is the wrong behaviour I can change it, potentially it would lead to weirdness as the attacked territory could lose both units then I'd have to gift one back.

    Sorry.  My bad.  I missed the artillery border thing.

    Or read the Board Description.

    Or the info at the bottom of the map.

    :P

    Just relieved that it wasn't a bug (for once) :)

    I even browsed the description and the map at first. Apparently my mind had banished any hope of attack-only borders and refused to process the information.
    Now I have too many new board ideas.

    I keep waiting for you to port Koprulu and Yamato over since those maps seem to beg the use of Attack-only and/or vision-only borders.

    Ummmm, where'd the board go in this game?
