OK I need to know this..or need to know its just not me...lol or that it is.

Now I do need reading glasses and have trouble with small print at times but man I have lost track of how many times the wrong armies have been fortified at the end of my turn.

In unlimited no biggy...in chained its been a killer.

Some of it I can easily blame on myself...but man it has happened way to many times.

Hug me and tell me everything is going to be all right and that Im not a canidate for the special bus.

get BOB greasemonkey script; you can have it ask you to confirm deployment/fortifications

yes, by all means get BOB or some other cheat mechanism... *rolling my eyes*... try clicking on the larger map deal on the side of the map. and as time goes by, you will learn the maps better and make fewer mistakes. you are a fairly new player and mistakes are bound to happen. i suggest clicking on the larger map, triple checking for mistakes, and being patient when fortifying... good luck!!!-0

So its just me then?

Maybe I should install a pellet dispenser and electrodes on my monitor. Everytime I do it right I get a treat and when I screw up it shocks my ass.

Well, similar, I have deployed wrong quite a few times on ConquerMan and Feudal.

The newer feudal map is better, I haven't done it so often, but I misread D's as O's, and vice versa, several times on conquerman. I'll get used to it eventually, cost me a bit though.

Feudal, before the new map, I mis-forted and mis-deployed many times.

Less often as I played more, it was still annoying though.

*hugs and tells you you're not alone on the special bus*

make sure your mousewheel doesn't move when you click the "fortify" or "auto attack" buttons. If the marker is still in the drop down menus for selecting territories it can f*ck you over, a while back I was going to auto attack against a single unit with my stack of 500, I hit an other stack of 500 instead. With over 4000 armies on the board it didn't matter too much though.
