that post was in Round 2? Huh. That shows me.
UF Forces get organized, just because NGIA sdisorganized doesn't make them any less of a threat. Stop this nonsensical debate and get focusedand prepare for combat.
No, that was round one. Sorry for taking so long.

I probably won't be back on tonight so if my question is answered I'll be locked into these actions anyway.I really hope my partner moves, and that people will fill in those empty slots. xP (Is it too late for someone to sign up? I'm trying to trick an irl friend into playing?)

I am always tired. Don't bother me.
The day has been long. Soldiers make their way through the vast territories. Armies gather together at major points, preparing for a battle. U.F. forces, which are being pulled together by Sarge, have made their rendezvous at the Right Window, close to N.G.I.A. borders. The C.o.R.F. take advantage of their massive forces and split up to take control of uncharted lands. The N.G.I.A., though currently outnumbered, dig in, knowing that they are in for a major fight.
Movement Info:
U.F.:
(FinnRagetti) moved 2 Cavaliers and a Tank to the Right Window, and 2 Gunners and a Tank to the Left Window.
(Spiffy) moved a Captain, 2 Gunners, a Sniper, and a Medic to the Left Window, and a Cavalier to the Right Window.
(polelover44) moved a Fighter to the Right Window.
(assassinfred) moved 3 Gunners and a Sniper to the Left Window.
C.o.R.F.:

Second, you do not pay for upkeep of defending forces, and they are left in their spot to defend. You can place units that you DO control into the defending forces slot on territories you capture.
Alrighty, well Round 3 has officially begun!
Round 3:
Upkeep: U.F. forces receive 100 funds.
N.G.I.A. forces receive 70 funds.

Now to answer some questions:
Well, technically, the title to this thread still says "Signups", so people can still join. However, if things continue the way they do, I will transfer one-fourth of the funds of other N.G.I.A. COs that don't have players to the N.G.I.A. COs that do. I will also give their abilities to the active N.G.I.A. COs.
You actually "travel" with the group of units that have the largest number. Once that group is taken out, you "return" to HQ and then begin "traveling" with whatever other group of units there are.
First, there is already a map that has been drawn up by (forks). It is right here:

Do we attack now or is that a separate part of the round?

I am always tired. Don't bother me.
You can make your "Non-Combat" moves now, if there are any units that will end up fighting, I'll make a separate combat post which you can reply to with your actions. I think everybody will most likely end up in combat one way or another.
@polelover: You had 150 total funds, so you have another 50 left over after your purchases.
Oh, and units spawn on HQ.
And lastly, BunnyMaster, since you activated your ability, feel free to update your post with newly purchased units.
@Finnragetti's post below: A unit can move into enemy territory and engage in combat in the same round as long as it is a direct attacker. If it is an indirect attacker, it cannot move and attack. Units with extra movement may attack (move and engage in combat), then can retreat, or proceed to another territory (only if all enemy units in its present location have been defeated). Check the main post for details.
Thanks for clarifying Acklow
so, wait, if I, say, moved units to a territory this turn, can those same units be in combat on the same turn?
Assassinfred: This should clarify things up for you. (Slowly adding everything as I go)

@Assassinfred: Units that attack Directly for the Combat Move (not the Non-Combat Move), can take part in Combat. However, Units that are using Indirect Weapons cannot attack with those weapons after making a Combat Move.
Edit: @Assassinfred again: Yeah
Edit: @Assassinfred again: Yeah
so, if I made a non-combat move, I can still make a Combat Move?

After making very difficult decisions, many COs finally came to the conclusion that war was inevitable. Sadly, the CO known as Artemis, did not make any decisions. He remained inactive for this round and all units owned by him are considered "defending" whatever territories they are in. U.F. Forces, led by Sarge led the U.F. charge into N.G.I.A., declaring all out war on the N.G.I.A. The N.G.I.A., knowing that war was inevitable, prepared for the onslaught by digging in for the night and fortifying their defenses. The C.o.R.F., which were led this round by Mr. Rich Uncle, have also declared a war on N.G.I.A.. Seeing that the N.G.I.A. are attacked on all sides, the favorable gods of warfare have decided to let the N.G.I.A. have a small chance and given their COs newfound abilities and a surplus of funds. Here are the results:
Movement Info: (assassinfred) moved 3xGunners, a Sniper, and 2x Cavaliers to the Right Window, in addition to moving 2xTanks to the Left Window.
(BunnyMaster) moved 12xGrunts to the Big Tree Roots, 1xGrunt to the Basketball Hoop, and 9xGrunts to the Untilled Soil (initiating Combat).
(Spiffy) moved a Captain, 2xGunners, and a Medic to the Right Window.
(FinnRagetti) moved 2xTanks & 2xCavaliers to the Petunias & Roses (initiating Combat), in addition to moving 2xGunners to the Right Window.
(forks) moved 3xHeavies to the Petunias & Roses (initiating Combat).
Battle Info: Okay, let's see some fighting!
(BunnyMaster's) 9xGrunts are now in Combat with the Defending Forces at the Untilled Soil (please post a reply as to what units those Grunts are going to fire upon!
(FinnRagetti's) 2xTanks & 2xCavaliers are now in Combat with the Defending Forces of the Petunias & Roses (please post a reply as to what units your units are going to fire upon)!
(Spiffy) orders his Sniper who is in the Left Window to fire upon one of the Mortarists in the Petunias & Roses! The Sniper deals 10 damage to the Mortarist! The Mortarist has been eliminated!
(forks) orders his units to defend! (Please post which units you own will fire upon Enemy forces)
Details: One of the Mortarists in the Petunias & Roses has been destroyed!
Please post your responses (only if you are in Combat), so that damage can be applied. If your units withstand Combat, you may choose to retreat after I post the results for that. For everyone else, hang tight, and get ready for some action yourselves! Those in Combat, please ensure your posts are finished within 48 hours of this post!
