Hi there.

Im assembling a small scenerio Suadi Arabia vs Mujahadeen
june 2005. Im setting up the Muja side and purchasing Iraqi units(Fanatics) to fight as Mujahadeen. These units will not appear as Mujahadeen units.Instead I get an irrelivant flag to the battle(not even sure what country it is).
I've tried both set captured and set allied and gotten the same results.

Ok The flag in question is Iranian,I had reset the default battle to Isreal vs Iran oct 2005,I just put it back to the default one,Isreal vs Egypt oct 1973. Now the flag appearing when I use "set captured" is egyptian.

Not sure, but I think this happens if you save the scenario and then go back in and purchase more allied/captured stuff later on...

I did what you described...

" Suadi Arabia vs Mujahadeen june 2005. Im setting up the Muja side and purchasing Iraqi units(Fanatics) to fight as Mujahadeen. "

OK, I did that. I then clicked on the Allies button then pressed "set Captured" then selected Iraq and pressed continue then bought some infantry type formations ( you didn't specify what you bought. Next time please do so )

When I deploy them on a map with the ID tags on I see a little black flag with a green crecent and star which is the Muja ID

If you are still haveing problems with this send me the scenario

Hi Don,

In my first post I said what type of units they were.

Fanatics was what they were called in the buy list.

Well you are getting the correct results,I am not.
I get whatever flag is in the right side of default battle.

I attached the files to this post.

You're correct. You did say fanatics. I read that with a different meaning than the formation name

That ID tag was Egypt. IDK how you did it but here it is fixed.
