On restarting, hitting the N key will advance the player to select an on-map unit, but even if you actually tell them in your scenario intro text, they likely will not read it (or understand it).

Off-map A0 units can cause confusion, so it is best to have him there from the start - most of the game code is based on him being there (e.g. lists, positioning of the unit selection cursor as here)...
Understood and an easy fix. I'll correct that.

I did play around with the programmed fire on a new basic scenario and have gotten the batteries to fire at the assigned location at the assigned turn. However, I found that I can't set multiple units to fire at different turns. Programmed fire seems to allow only a single turn for multiple units. When I set different arty units to fire at different turns, they all revert to the last unit turn selected. I can work around that though.

Thanks again.
