I just started playing Shadow Magic and have most of the map explored. Sometimes I need an army to go 3 or 4 turns worth of moves across the map. I can click "go to this point 100 steps away" but every turn I have to re-click the army to get it to keep walking the same path.

Am I doing something wrong? It seems like there should be "everyone who has a path set up just keep walking" command somewhere. Is there?

Thanks.

I don't remember such a command, but there is a "move selected stack", "m".

Select next stack at the bottom doesn't do it?

Yep, I usually have my left hand on the N (next stack) and M (keep moving where I already told you to) buttons while using the mouse in the right hand. And then I hit D (Done and quit asking) when the stack is where I want it to stay.

A good trick I use is to place my guarding units on one of the six non-center hexes for a city. Then they can guard without asking me for instructions while newly generated troops will pop up in the queue of stacks when hitting the N (next) button.

There's also an "Auto Move" in Game Settings which will move the unit automatically when it's time to move. It's safer to just use the 'M' key though.

Thanks for the replies. N-M-D was exactly the kind of thing I was looking for to speed turns up.

We look forward to you joining us in a multiplayer game soon. Minimal experience needed!
