Dak To Phase 1

[carll11]

A CA ( combat assault via Helo) can be made into what hexes? Scub? Tall grass? and...?( I ran a search for LZ in the manual but didnt see any in info. on landing ground conditions/terrain).



For the scenarios with no lzs noted on the map, do I still need to turn off the optional rule for historical LZs only?

Also- its says we can create firebases can the srty be airlifted? The SP arty? Dont think so..... but the other arty?

Here's a list of Landing Zones in that scenario for you

LANDING_ZONES = {}
LANDING_ZONES[1] = "23,79"
LANDING_ZONES[2] = "31,59"
LANDING_ZONES[3] = "33,64"
LANDING_ZONES[4] = "34,50"
LANDING_ZONES[5] = "40,36"
LANDING_ZONES[6] = "41,36"
LANDING_ZONES[7] = "51,65"
LANDING_ZONES[8] = "51,78"
LANDING_ZONES[9] = "66,85"
LANDING_ZONES[10] = "68,64"
LANDING_ZONES[11] = "89,70"
LANDING_ZONES[12] = "94,52"
LANDING_ZONES[13] = "95,53"
LANDING_ZONES[14] = "96,53"
LANDING_ZONES[15] = "96,70"
LANDING_ZONES[16] = "97,54"
LANDING_ZONES[17] = "98,54"
LANDING_ZONES[18] = "108,49"
LANDING_ZONES[19] = "109,50"
LANDING_ZONES[20] = "110,50"
LANDING_ZONES[21] = "111,51"

There are only a handful, so you need to use them carefully.

LZ east of Hill 824
The hill north of Hill 823
Hill 823
Small landing zone northwest of Hill 664
Hill 1001
Hill 724
Small landing zone east of Hill 865
two Small landing zones northeast of Hill 1262

Remember to use:

[*]the Highlight LZs Toolbar button, and/or
[*]the Display > Highlight > Landable LZ Hexes menu item, and/or
[*]the Alt+Z hotkey

Recall also:

[*]Options > Highlight Colors

to set your preferred color. (Tip: Different highlight colors work best with different prevalent terrain.)

I find Zoom 8 or 9 best for picking out highlighted hexes.

OK I want to be sure I am not missing anything, as its my first time round in a op this size; the 3/12 is supposed to CA to attack 1338 and the ridge, the 3/8 is supposed to build a FB at 1001, BUT has no Eng. which is located with the 3/12...? and the 3/8 has no helo assets. I assume I am to truck them to the Dak To 2 airfield?

ThX Berto! I just in fact found the LZ highlight icon!!

Yea I reset my highlight colors already......[;)]


well, I am changing the Op order. I am trucking my 3/8 th south, then attacking the 1338 ridge from the west directly with maybe a small CA into that close LZ to 1338...if its FUBAR, they can only send me back to Vietnam...well, no they cant but anyway....that was the saying we had.
