Attacks are free? Don't they cost any movement points?

from GalCiv3 Forums

While I like the idea of being able to pound away at a stack of 9+ enemy ships when I have only a couple of move points left, I have to wonder about the intent, and the fairness. So, isn't each command to attack an enemy ship or fleet supposed to take a movement point?

I imagine it's just something they haven't worked out yet in the current build. I'm sure it'll cost something to attack in a future build.

I agree. I'm just getting it on their list just in case.

If your out of moves and your next to a enemy ship, if you attack you get a movement point. How about that.

 

DARCA. ;)

According to Mormegil, it's a bug:

Yes that is definitely a bug, you should get one attack per move. So unless you fleet had like 15 moves per turn, something is wrong. I'll see if i can reproduce it, and get it on the bug list.

From the sounds of it, this is actually an issue and I will make sure to note it. Thanks for the feedback!

I have noticed that too, did not check if it happens everytime you attack or only sometimes.
