a question

Thanks again for a great game. If, for example, I have a large truck, a rifle squad, and a bazooka unit in the same hex how do I load these units into the truck at the same time? The carry capacity of the truck indicates it can be done. I've tried the L key and D key under "load units" but that doesn't do it. I'm sure there is a simple answer for this but I can't find it in the manual. Thanks much.

You should use "L" key. When loading multiple units into one carrier you have to select the unit first than press "L" and select the carrier; otherwise the carrier will unload the first unit when you wanted to load the second.

Game Guide -> Deploying units. Scroll down to the box detailing the hot keys, then under that the paragraph beginning "Note on Loading and Unloading".

The L key when applied to a loaded transport is the unload key - therefore it is only useful for single unit loads onto an empty carrier, if you select the transport unit and then point to a passenger unit.

To load multiple pax :
- First select the prospective passenger (not the transport!)
- Hit L then click on the target transport to load the passenger onto it.
- Repeat process for other passengers.
