Does anybody know if the New Guinea Campaign will have any scenarios in the game?

Cmon dave.

Trying to fight the 21st Brigade any better than Potts did is the big challenge.

Hell, I might even cheat and give myself a couple of 3inch mortars
(Potts brigade only had 1 !!!!! during the whole fighting withdrawal).

IMO, the fighting withdrawal along Kokoda by the 39th battalion and the 21st Brigade was arguably the greatest feat of arms by Australians ever.

Potts shouldve been promoted by macarthur, not sacked!

(sorry bout that, I just cant help bagging that **** macarthur).

your dead right though in whipping the 53rd into shape....

sorry Dave :)

The 30th Mililta Brigade comprised the 39th, 49th & 53rd battalions.

the 39th, excellent, in the finest ANZAC traditions
the 53rd, woeful, an embarrassment.
the 49th, spent the whole time sitting in PM

The Kokoda is one of my favourite military subjects. now I gotta get back to work....

talk later.
