Campaign force question

desh44 · #1 October 13th, 2005, 03:13 PM

Am currently working on second scenario of a campaign game. In this one I wanted the core force with a couple of added auxiliary units to rescue a unit under attack. Is it possible to deploy units on the map outside the start line in fixed positions. One unit would be on the left side of the map with the enemy in the middle and the core force deploying on the right. If not I will need to rethink this one.

Thanks

Make the rest of the units to FIX. Keep in mind that in the very first scenario you are able to use only the core force units.

Thanks Artur....will try this...the first scenario is done and it has only the core force which is fixed.

Another thing to keep in mind is the force "behind" the enemy will rout toward the opposite side and therefore directly into the enemy forces.

Thanks Mike....The way I set it up is when I bought the units I bought the besieged force with the settings for defend. I then switched to attack and bought the auxiliary force which will be with the core force. The de fence force should be able to hold until the relief for pushes through LOL If not that is OK because it fits with mission. Half the objectives are being covered by the de fence force. The force is a small one (1 platoon, a scout section and 3 covered foxholes) so its loss will not throw off the victory results. This force is facing 3 platoons with a couple of demo teams. The relief force is 1 company with a pair of tanks and it has to punch through 2 reinforced companies but these are spread out so it should be pretty even.

Thanks for the help
