Merging units

Anyone found a way to group units into companies or whatever so I don't have to select them one at a time for group movement out of newly conquered cities for example?

I'm not sure, but I think it has to do with the unit medallions. The UI for that definitely needs work.

My understanding is that in the field, by default you'll select everything int he field.  When in a city, you need to select each unit.

I'd like some explanation too.

 

When they are in a city, CTRL+left click allows to join the medallions. But, when I send them wandering, the group disjoins according to the number of moves of the champions. #:(

But not always... 8(|

I feel there should be a group all button. You have all the units on a square and there's a button somewhere that lets you combine them together. An ungroup button would be appropriate then.

Tridus, the UI seems like the lovechild of demigod and SoaSE.

I think you have to hit the Sheild Icon after Slecting the units to join them

it would also be helpful if we could merge smaller sized unit formations into biger ones, once the tech is researched, for example i have 4 squads of swordsmen (i.e. 4 * 2 = 10) and have companies researched i should be able to form a compan with them.

er ... 5 * 2 = 10, while 4 * 2 = 8  :p
