Missing air asset in Meeting of Titans scn?

[Siljanus]

I own a few Matrix games but decided to delurk for this one. I'm trying to spread the good word on this game since I'm enjoying it alot and I'm always glad to find an approachable game that takes place in this type of hypothetical setting.

But enough praise[;)], I have a question about the first US scenario, Meeting of Titans. The briefing mentioned having a pair of A-10's at my disposal but when the scenario started the airstrike button was grayed out and the only air assets I had at my disposal were my helo units. My A-10's never appeared throughout the scenario. It was a nice day so I don't think they were grounded due to weather. Is this a glitch or is it a possibility that your air strike assets may not show up in your scenario? In the after action report however, the 2 A-10's were listed alive and well (probably knocking back beers and bratwurst somewhere instead of giving me air support[:@]).

Thanks for both any help you can give with this and congrats on a great game! From reading some other threads on the game, it seems that more good things are in store for us!

I know they arrive are reinforcements in that scenario and I have had them arrive, though I'm not sure how many turns in. Is it possible you won before their arrival?

Ahh, I didn't realize they were reinforcements. That would explain it then since the I thought the game ended earlier than expected with a decisive victory. Sure didn't feel like a victory though with a few of my units wiped out and others mauled by the Red horde.

Thanks for the quick response!

Yep, 4 hours into the fight they should arrive on station...

In fact this is in a few scenarios. Additional air and arty assests "arrive" after a certain time frame has passed.

And they're not always available...on and off...just as if they've been called to another hot spot!

I think the scenario is called "a few good Tanks".

the U.S. 3 Plt/Team D/5-18 Inf Bn: shows in the UDP having four M1A1's but in the silhouette is shown as a Bradley FV. I think it should say 4 or 5 M2 IFV's or something like that in the description ... the silhouette is probably right ... either way there is a slight inconsistency.

But, My first night playing is running way too late ... I'm going to have to force myself to go to sleep now ... and My BiN games are being neglected. ... another game to add to my addiction ... //zkjzzzzzzzzzzzz

OH! that's my only input
