Alert points for Market Garden

Battlefront features the power of battalion-level combat in some of this period's most bloody and intense conflicts: Saipan, Market Garden, Novorossisk, and Gazala. Players will have realistic control over their soldiers, with a tactical scale just large enough to make a telling difference in the strategic picture.

Alert points for Market Garden

Post by CptWaspLuca »

Hello, only a small question. I know the general meaning of the alert points, but I don't know how to obtain the reinforcements at Deelen in Market Garden. I have taken the three airfield hexes in the second turn and at the end of the game is still all mine, but the airlanding reinforcements are still locked... What I'm missing?

There was a plan to take take the airfield but as we know it never happened. I think those airlanding guys are there in for possible variant scenarios.

They arrive via the OMA alert screen. Did they show up there?

I was wondering the same thing. I am currently hold both of the reinforcement hexes. I have held them for two turns with nothing showing up on the OMA screen. There are several SS units in the area, maybe that has something to do with it?

No, simply there is not enough alert points to start the arrival... So this is simply impossible.

I looked thru the editor details. No alert units in the scenario can be activated (setting for all Allied units).

So the design is in place but not used... would appear that the airlanding brigade is there for an alternate scenario versions.

JSS,
 So can you tell me how to edit and save this as a different scenario so I can give it a trying with the landing brigade? I'd love to try but have no clue how to change it :(
