To entrench on a hex not under your control, move your units to the hex.
Right-click on the hex, then select "Advanced Orders".

The advance orders popup has the "Entrench" option on it.

Select it.

The following features have been added to my Cat Mod, available on the SR Wiki under Mods: LAND UNITS Artillery - the more adavnced US artillery is now more powerful and has a longer range. The M-111 Excalibre is now the perfect anti-ship shore battery gun. Advanced US AA systems like the Patriot ar...

Really enjoying the AAR.

Good job.

I just got to the page where you capture Brazil. Congrats on your effective use of your B-52s. I have never seen such a wide-spread or effective pre-emptive strike as your cruise-missile attack on SA. I have a really bad feeling about your helping Japan defeat China. It sort of feels like you are cr...

I have just read your first two pages, but congratulations on establishing so many diplomatic successes - these are nearly an unknown concept to me, since I don't recall every having any permanent ones. I cannot even imagine how to manage a true alliance. You are helping Japan fight off China? That ...

Yes, but missiles are not units, are they?

I don't remember them ever having health bars before.

That is very interesting about guided missiles tracking moving targets - thanks for the info.

You are correct - if you display just chevrons, then for a single unit you get a single bar and for a stack you get a one chevron and a single bar. IMHO: But people can at least see the hex and can see the actual multiple units over-laying each other. I think that is much more coherent than a bewild...

I sent it to you, probably more than once - my home internet is not working yet since I moved back from Atlanta.

Balthagor,

Yea, I was going to get around to that - distributing my new Cat mod.

The last time I tried to add a mod to your Wiki it was a disaster - I really screwed up your Wiki.

For those that frown upon my moding (modifying the game's SRUNITS file), research, deployment and use of faux nuclear weapons, here called "Plasma Weapons", let me say this - bit me. No seriously, I cooked those up at a stage of the game where I was short on men and units, and it looked like the gam...

December 8th, 2029 - Australia surrendered and I began the arduious job of evacuating my units from that continent and dismantling the Australian and Indomaylasian bases that I constructed for the Australian campagne. I had previously constructed an extensive infrastructure of roads, bases and air s...

Does anyone know why my missiles would start displaying huge health bars? I changed most of them from low flying air targets to middle air targets, but that is about all that I changed. Also, what determines whether a missile is a "Guided Missile" or not? Does "guided missile" mean that it is not an...

November 27, 2026 I started capitalizing on my conquest of Indomalaysia (IM) by revamping its transportation infrastructure. It is a complex collection of islands, a surprising number of which are bridgable. I created a new series of roads and bridges to inter-connect the islands and untimately forg...

Much earlier in the game, I started a long campagne to weaken Britain prior to actually invading it. once I had established air and sea bases on the Spanish Madria islands, I started sending naval task forces North to Britan to destroy their Western oil platforms. January 19th, 2023 - Once I capture...
