I have acquired Flashpoint Campaigns: Red Storm by Chance and not with the best feelings. 
With its predecessor, Flashpoint Germany, I could never get used properly.
Flashpoint Campaigns: Red Storm is so great, waiting for the promising update is a pain!

We hope everyone enjoys and appreciate the hard work that went into 2.03. But for the OTS team, we are already off and working on 2.04. Next up is the highly anticipated revamp of sudden death, fog of war refinements and some needed AI tweaking. As I write this post, we have chained Rob to his keyboard and he is busy pounding out code. As they say, there is no rest for the wicked (or something like that).

Capn D has opened a thread on your comments and critique of 2.03. Your thoughts are always appreciated.

Gepards and Rolands have finally taken out a Hind [:D]

I can finish the School Teacher campaign now.

And it plays a lot quicker too.

I am probably being thick but what do you click to highlight or select all the units under a HQ?

Thanks :)

Yeah, we'll talk about what you think of that campaign when you're done. [8D]


Good Hunting.

Alt-click the counter or the OOB tree for the HQ.

Ok, Alt-click HQ selection does not work when the limited staff rule is in effect, It works when the rule is not effect, is this working as intended?

Thanks

Is there an updated tutorial guide to go along with all the changes? And an updated manual?

As a new player, I want to play through the tutorial, but I hear so much has changed that some steps in the guide don't match the game.

Yes.

That is not the same order. If you give 5 units an order for 5 orders or just 1 through the HQ that isn't going to get you down to 1 order in the Limited Orders mechanic.

I would just play the game. The changes are going to be apparent to you from how you experienced the game before. I would skip the tutorial for anything other than your first run through with the game.

If you want to do it the way we all do it, play the rapidly becoming immortal "A Time To Dance" and see how it plays differently than it did before and go from there.



Good Hunting.

But, I have not really played the game before. I have just played part of the tutorial, and did not even finish that. Yeah, I know . . . I got busy with some other things.

So, I am basically starting from scratch, and I was hoping the tutorial guide would match the actual tutorial. So, I guess the answer is "it doesn't"?

I'm about 98% sure it doesn't.
