question on troop movement
is there a way to select a group of units to make them move at the same time? ifyaknowwhatimean? you can do this in civ3 (i'm not sure about the other civs since i haven't played them). it takes SO LONG to move each unit individually. if there's a way to create groups and move them as a group, i'm gonna kick myself...

press j on keyboard. A menu will appear with some options which types of unit you want to include (pretty good). You created a group. Use shift+j to move it. Hopefully this helps you althrough I prefer to move each individual unit. Seems I am a control maniac.

I don't like the group feature on SMAC/X, I find it confusing.

yes, I think you can move the groups only to other bases, and they kinda disperse on the way.

That was my experience -- I also don't recall any choices regarding what units I wanted to include.
