Would like to know this as well. If 3 of 5 in a crew/squad survive, do they keep the Exp?

<t>I was playing the Campaign series - East Front, West Front and Rising Sun - until I found SP: WAW. I wouldn't have been out looking for SP: WAW if it wasn't for three critical things:<br/>
1. There is NO RECON/STEALTH element to the Campaign Series!!! If you move within enemy LOS, you get spotted ...

When exactly can you perform the reassignments? Not in-game or at the start of a campaign? Does it have to happen between campaign scenarios, during the change/fix stage? Would appreciate some details on that!

Can you change HQ for units?

<t>I often find that I want to attach extra units to a formation - say, an engineer, armor or recon platoon to an infantry Co. <br/>
<br/>
Is it possible to assign units to a different commander than the one they have (for most '0' units, it's A0 of course), and if so, how? <br/>
<br/>
Can it be ...

How many points does the AI get in Campaigns?

<t>There are a couple of things I wonder about here, when adjusting purchase points in settings:<br/>
<br/>
1. Both sides say "Default" for troop purchase points. Let's say I spend only 50% of my 3000 (if that was default) points. Does the AI get <br/>
a) 3000 points, does he get <br/>
b) 1500 ...

<t>I prefer long campaigns where you can alter history. I wish there were campaigns going through the whole war for every major nation, based on history, with the possibility of historic change. I would like to see some campaigns with more varied fighting/objectives - haven't seen much urban action ...

<t>I suppose my mental representation of the in-game Raiders are reduced from "Sea Mobile" to "Seaborne" in that case, seeing as I can't do hit and run tactics! Oh well, not like raids are of much use in these campaigns anyway - I just need to get troops behind the lines to pillage and rape his REMF ...

After reading your post again, I understand your teleportation suggestion, hehe. How sad that Marines are afraid of loading landing crafts in-mission!

Anyone else have any suggestions? Are my barges truly as useless as we think?

<t>I haven't really had much luck with barges that I bought either, I tried that in the Tulagi campaign and ended up having to reload mission with amph. tanks. <br/>

So how exactly do you load barges, if not by the "adjacent hex" method that I used above? (And which only allows a single unit ...

Does that mean that it is impossible to play as any minor nation, at all, ever, in any long WWII campaign, beyond the first couple scenarios?

Load barges with multiple units - possible?

<t>I am playing the first scenario of Guadalcanal, and I have a Raider company I am trying to load into the barges provided in-mission. But no matter how I arrange things, I don't seem to be able to place more than one unit in a barge, even though it seems to have capacity for 55 men! <br/>

<t>I agree with the subjectivity of history... although that is a vague statement. What I agree with is that I don't think everything written in a book is perfectly clear and accurate. As mentioned, you can find sources claiming opposite things. Was Montgomery a spoiled primadonna in command of self ...
