Do you have 5 minutes to take a survey that will help influence the future of Flashpoint Campaigns? Link here: https://forms.gle/dNQwywxJL8nJhZn5A

Whether you've played a Flashpoint Campaigns game or not, we'd appreciate your opinion and feedback!

The purpose of this survey is to gather data from ...

In the game, Mech Plt's are showing only 2 Squads. They Should have 3.

This is a big disadvantage for the US player as it shorts the Mech Co a Platoon of Soldiers.

This image I located in a 2002 Field Manual and is not historically accurate to 1989.

I'm currently reviewing the American scenarios and this is not an issue that applies to all US scenarios, thankfully.

We will see how feasible it is to update the affected scenarios. Also to note, the doctrine is a best-case scenario and in reality, there were understrength platoons and logistics ...

What is the citation for that source image? Just need to crosscheck. It's been discussed internally, and as Jim said, a fix will be addressed in an upcoming data update.

Thanks everyone for the feedback and votes so far!

If you voted that you would like to play a Campaign, but have not yet... what is the reason stopping you from playing a Campaign?

Is it a timing thing? Is there a lack of campaign you would play yet?

Yes, there is a West German campaign and you can read its scenario descriptions here [Spoilers].

I'm curious to hear from players whether you prefer playing standalone scenarios or the campaigns.
Please fill out this poll so we can gauge how popular campaigns are! Elaborate on what campaigns you have played, or if you don't play campaigns, please explain why not. Thanks!

I noticed this happens during the Replay mode for a Multiplayer game. There are three explosion animations per one kill.

It's not you, it's the data. I encountered this while setting up Rendezvous With Destiny, which is why it uses Chinooks instead.

I added Jira 6818 for Jim to revise the data to address this.

I would like it if the FSCC would stop targeting enemy units in hexes with friendly units, which results in cancelled barrages and wastes the barrages for the turn. What the FSCC does is keep trying to target the same hex, with a continuous loop of targeting and cancelling instead of selecting ...

A mod isn't commercial distribution, so I think you're in the clear with any IP concerns.

Thanks for the additional reports. It's good to identify which scenario, as blond_knight_new pointed out this experience isn't happening for everyone across all scenarios. So we need to replicate and diagnose as a systemic or case-by-case scenario issue.

I've adjusted the SOPs, and thanks to Kevin running a check, identified several WP units whose SOPs did not make sense either. So those are fixed for the next update.

This scenario was reported rather easy for Blue... but with the above changes, might increase the challenge a wee bit.

I'm noticing that circled Leopard's fire discipline range is set to Short Range (1/3 Max). I'll adjust that too.

I'll update the default SOPs in the scenario and double check the tank units.

What are their SOPs set to?

We're taking the reports seriously, even beyond just editing the scenario, there is some behaviour that isn't expected happening as you're pointing out. So we're on the case!

They could work well in any era. Even today, NATO conducts paratroop exercises:

Once you are in the scenario, press F11 to make it full screen and that task bar should be hidden!
