Dogs of War Online

Units with flight can't fly above enemy nor friendly units. That mostly ruins the sense of "fligth".
Inabilty to fly over enemy units could be a feature, but not over your own units.

Seems it should be moved to feedback, instead of bugs section.

Done

That's a good topic, but i'm pretty sure the flight mechanic works as it did in the board game, maybe someone will confirm.
EDIT : apprently not, didn't played it personnaly, so my mistake

It's an interesting idea though !

I'm not sure but in the board game, you can flight above any kind of obstacle.
So, if you can flight above an obstacle, you can fly above units,no ?

Right - the boardgame offered more mechanics with the "flight" ability.

In Dogs of War, the flight mechanics were simplified because of the nature of the game (no vertical gameplay for the moment).
Flying units can only fly at the "level 0" rule right now, so we made it so they ignored the nature of the hexagon they went through, but it does not allow them to go through any unit.

So Flight is working as it was intended to - it means that it can't (and won't) allow the units to fly over their comrades for now. It could change in the future though, but it is unlikely.

In current interpretation unit with flight can even less than unit with jump in Confrontation2-3

Flight was mainly the option to fly above enemy, be safe against all non archer units and make powerfull Dive atacks

In C4(aotr) it worked more similar but still there was an option to fly through the units.

Witout that flying is nothing more than War Lion Mobile skill ;P

I never played the game and so don't know how well designed it was but after reading this I sure hope they're actually completely redesigning the whole game rather than choice parts, otherwise any original sense of balance will be out of whack.
