Here's a thought...

I would like to see something where unless I send ALL of my armies to a conquered territory, my next move should be from where I am.
Too many times I get in the groove, win a territory, only send a couple armies, then go to attack again, only for my next attack to come from where I just sent a couple of armies to.
I've lost many armies doing that. I just feel that unless you send all of your armies to a territory, the game should default your next turn to your original spot.
Whining, yes.
Venting, yes.
Frustrated, ABSOLUTELY.

What?
How often do you send a couple armies and intend to continue attacking from there? Compare to how often you send 1 or 2 just to defend or to save a move later and want to go on attacking with the larger force.

No its I leave a few there to defend and my major force moves on, so if I had to then reselect my major force thats where my problem is.

More often than not, when I advance only a portion of my force, it's because I still want to attack from the original territory.

the option you are asking for here is paying attention.. Im not trying to be negative, but the current settup is much better. You have to get used to it...and above all else.. pay attention...
this is with respect...I assure you.. ive fumbled thousands of times in here.. but your idea would be far more complicated and cause many more mistakes to be made

Agreed. Same thing with the "undo drop" option.

All good pts.
Just venting. It was a mistake to put that on the board, but others are apparently having the same 'attention' issues.
Thanks.
