Barge loading?

Post by sgt joe »

Ok, I cannot figure out how to load my takes onto barges from the barge carriers when attempting to force a river crossing. Any help? Thanks!

Im assuming you got your barges into the water ?
Move your tanks to the hex right next to the Barge facing it. at waters edge in other words.
Then click on the barge, then click load, then click on the tank you want loaded. it should load right up.

hope this helps[:D]

Another little trick I stumbled across with barges...if you want to load MULTIPLE loads (WITHIN the Carry limits of barge), Pull barge up to the dock, jetty, or damaged bridge and I have loaded HT (empty) and then a squad, otherwise I was only able to load one or the other. NO you can't put all the equipment the scenario author originally put in on a beach landing scenario once you empty it. HTH

Yes, that worked. I kept trying it the same way you load a land based vehicle, clicking the unit to load first instead of the vehicle (barge) to be loaded...
