Just re-bought this the other week (missed the $10 discount! [:D] )...but could do with a little help...

I have created a transport task force in Brisbane in the Coral Sea scenario. I looked at the load costs of the infantry units there and determined what transports to add. So I created the TF - when I went to load troops, none of the troops I had looked at were available for adding and I don't understand why! The troops available for loading were under SWPAC command, and the troops that I wanted to load are under Northern Command - and I can't seem to change them to SWPAC so I can load them...

Am I unable to use these troops outside of Australia? Can I change command of the units to SWPAC so I can load them?

I'm confuzzled!

Thx

Oh - and I would brace yourself for many, many questions from me [:D]

I haven't played UV in years, but I don't think you could change commands in that game. But if I'm wrong about that, you need political points to do it in WitP, so I assume you needed them in UV too. But I doubt you can.

Check your reinforcement lists for the first units coming in that you can move to Port Moresby, and get your shipping to that base ready for the move.

My bad - so sorry - it actually says in the special rules section that Northern Command cannot move out of Oz!

Check the other Oz bases for units eligible for redeployment to PNG. I believe either Townsville or Cairns has a brigade, plus several AA and ENG units scattered about.
