Hi again. I have 2 more questions if I may:
1st. Correct me if Im wrong but I can not find a logic in choosing battle sides. If I select player1 to be USA and player2 to be Viet Cong, player1 USA appears on the right side of the map. Now the problem is that I can not choose USA to start on the left side at all it always starts on the right side of the map. Some Vietnam maps are designed so that USA should start on the left side however this is impossible to do... So could it be changed so that Player1 would start Left and Player2 would start Right by default?
Or even better have a Swap Sides option like there is in the Editor Screen.

There is a logic in choosing sides. We set that down when the game was first being developed and picked the "most logical" sides for each pairs of nations. Now.. there are 92 nations so the chance of someone not liking the choice we made for one combination is quite high.. Yes? It was decided that the US player in Vietnam plays from the coast and faces inland for generated battles. I have no idea what the "swap sides" button could potentially screw up in a generated battle or campaign. We'll put that on our "maybe think about" list

2nd. This is more of a cosmetic thing, but anyway:
In enclypedia if there is no Picture available for a unit it does not show the Pm00000.lbm "No Photo Available" -picture. It only shows the picture in purchase screen. In enclypedia and battle it shows nothing at all. Was this done intentionaly?

That's the way those screen have always worked AFAIK. The "no Picture available" LBM was only originally intended to be used by OOB developers and a blank one inserted for release but we left it in right from the start and it's always stayed in. If the blank one was inserted you'd see nothing on all screens
