All help greatly appreciated
Thanks guys

You are using the wrong map data file (pwhex.dat). You are using the one for the standard map, not the one for the extended map. You will need to install the correct one.

What kind of setup do you have? Do you have two WitP installations? Or do you have one installation and use ModSelect to load the map?

Andrew

[Ron Saueracker]

Andrew is correct. I loaded your turn and voila, APs started loading. Not sure if you can free that TF stuck in the rat run barricade though.

Man, are you getting the boots put to ya![:D][X(]

[kaleun]

I have two installations. One for the CHS and one for the standard.
I have tried downloadingthe pwhex file for the extended map, but it seems to be the same.
How do I go about this?
Can one of you guys e-mail the file?
Thanks

Japan moves to seize oil rich Balikpapan. The Martin bombers put up a discrete, but ultimately futile, resistance.
Meanwhile, in Burma, Japanese forces move in on Lashio, and may attempt to cut the Burma road near Lashio, rather than in Mytkivina.
The allied defensive perimeter in the SWPAC is rapidly being established. The sea route to Australia is now considered secure, as reinforcements move into Canton Is.

Push on Akyab

[kaleun]

May 14th 1942.
The British high command reports that Lashio has fallen. It is expected that the enemy will attempt to cut the Burma Road near Lashio, as opposed to Mytkivina. It will certainly be more difficult for the allies to reopen the road near Lashio due to the longer distance from a railhead.
Large amounts of reinforcements are about to arrive in Karachi, however transport through the Burmese jungles is a b$tch.
Enemy bombers again bombed Port Moresby, where allied fighters are putting up a gallant defence[8|]
