Campaign Series Legion on Twitch

[Hoplite1963]

Just watching the latest Operation Starlite video and see that while most of the enemy units have VC bases that one or 2 have NVA ones with the yellow star on a completely red field.

Are these NVA as opposed to VC units?

Many thanks
Ian

I also see in game turn 18 that it appears to be possible to have an inflight chopper in the same hex as an enemy unit ?

[Jason Petho]

Yes, of course.

You can fly over enemy units.

And you can walk over enemy units if they are in tunnels.

A data error due to using the wrong platoon for the company, I will remedy that for 1.01.

[Hoplite1963]

Thanks for the prompt reply on both of these.

Kind regards
Ian

My pleasure, I'm happy to answer all questions!

Are all the units and platoons just generically named? Just beginning to watch the playthrough of Operation Starlite in the unit pane I just see things like "Marine Platoon 65" or "Gunship (Hog)" rather than a "1st platoon/D Company/5-46th Bn" that sort of thing. Is there not a defined chain of command that each platoon/company/battalion belongs to? Or how is that represented? I've not really played the campaign series so please forgive my ignorance.

No, the order of battles are properly defined, here is a screenshot from Operation Starlite that shows you where to find that information for each platoon.

You can also use the Status - Find Org to see the sides order of battle for the scenario

oh, brilliant thank you! I guess I hadn't watched far enough or somehow missed it. Thanks so much [8D]

[Jason Petho]

You're most welcome, my pleasure!

Good choice !! ...Not sure you will be beating up the VM as much as you have been beating up the VC in Starlite though [;)]

[Jason Petho]

Hahaha... I doubt it!
