In colonization, where this system comes from, you can capture one unit/attack
and have one attack/turn (and can lose). It would be very wrong if one could 
take over 6 tile with some units just moving along the road.
It'd be better if one had to attack and win against some minor value (1 ?) 
before taking over.
