Default Re: What\'s wrong with this?

I'm the opponent and my password is "campaign".
How do I attach a file set?
I have a theory. The units I deployed were 'dead'. Only the points of damage were not equal to the points the unit cost (IIRC, I cannot reopen that file set). I think those where kills where the crew bailed out. Normally I keep track of those and replace them first, but the game ended a turn early so I didn't get the chance to record which crews were still alive.
When the dead units came up on the deploy screen, they had damage points ALMOST equal to the point cost of a fresh unit. NO MP's so I placed them in position where they would be decoys to draw fire. Figuring if they were dead, getting them killed again wouldn't be any big deal and it might give me a free target. Worked better then I thought.
As far as the Patriots, they are off-map weapons. With a range of several hundred Km's , they are beyond the scope of a tactical game. They are death on SEAD strikes as well as giving one a count of the opponent's off map units. You cannot target or fire at his off map units BUT they do show up as target (1).
