You have a point there. It certainly made me read the manual, rethink options and plans and go out looking for AARs and videos on how the hell to deal with it, very educational indeed! Also, nothing more satisfying than a steep challenge finally overcome. [;)]

<t> wohoo! thanks genehaynes and governato, that pointed me in the right direction! And may I add<br/>

- send your recon units east across the river to threaten the victory locations there, this really panicks the AI [:D]<br/>

make sure you have energy saving options in windows preferences set to "maximum performance", otherwise the OS will throttle your CPU down to < 1 GHz. When I adjusted the setting, performance increased about 5x!

wonderful, just what I wanted.
thanks!

<r> Is there a way to turn on logging to a file permanently? <br/>
There is the option "save log to file", but that only saves the current context of the message box, and those don't go back to the beginning of the scenario. Sometimes I need to go back a few hours to find out where I made the ...

thanks, mikmyk!
did not see a waypoint there, maybe i deleted it inadvertently...
maybe i bombed it away along with all the other stuff there during the preparatory strike [;)]

playing Raid on Kismayo, can't get my marines out of their helicopters.
How do you do it, is there some special hotkey for it?

I can do without explosions, ship diesel sounds, weapon releases, howling winds etc.
I would welcome some distinct warning beeps for new contacts, inbound missiles and such, that would be useful if you have to leave your console for a minute once in a while

yes, i see those all the time; typically around 10 repetitions of the same message.
