Seems to be the same effect of using it with the stock scenario. It seems to be the only way of getting the USMC parachute battalion.

I doubt that. What is the slot number - I will check it out - and maybe fix it if there is an issue. I learned about paras to create some real world IJ ones - and I know the "secret" field and how to set it.

I don't know what the slot number is. It arrives on 8 December 1941 in the campaign scenario, and there seems to be a bug that prevents units arriving on that date from actually showing up. By my causing the arrival date to vary, it appears to eliminate the problem, but it may result in other units not appearing. For CHS, I would recommend that the date be delayed one day.

That's varied reinforcement... what about variable setup? The one that's offering 4 variants with stock campaigns?
