Operation Snoopy

I just played Operation Snoopy by the Camo Workshop and I noticed that three platoons made it to the battlefield.

The platoons that I didnt get were a little odd though.
They consisted of:
3 Rhodesian Light Inf Squads
1 Sniper
1 1 C47 Dakota Transports

Anyone else play this scenario and see this.

Were these troops set as passengers?

cheers,

Yes, thats exactly how they were displayed. I've only been playing SPMBT for about two weeks so I'm still used to the SPWAW way of moving units.

Any ideas?

Bishop746,

I checked the scenario and I think that for some reason the Airdrop targets were not set.

I will look it up further.

cheers,

Thank you, its a good scenario and worth the time I think.

I looked at the DOS MBT v3 version and the problem is also present (the airdrop marks are not set).

Now in order to fix this problem there are three ways:

1. To notify Don G., in order to check an older DOS version and update the current scenario,

2. To notify the scenario designer.

3. To open the scenario editor and choose where you want the airdrop to happen and at what turn.

cheers,
Pyros

p.s I will send a note to Don G.

Or, are you supposed to plot the Drop Zone at turn1 with the paras dropping later in the game? (quite later in fact)!

I don't think that the scenario description mentions anything related with such an activity.

cheers,
