Why on a random generated setup are most of my units facing the opposite direction of the victory objective flags? Most of them are facing to the offboard edges behind the battleline. I had to adjust nearly 80 sum units 60 infantry and the rest mortars and such. Is this by design?

Also is it bad to use antialiasing and anosotropic (sp) filtering?

Oh and when attempting to load a campaign the text is all long across the window like it goes outside of the window and overlaps. Is this because I'm using 1280x1024 resolution instead of 1024x768?

It was a random battle (scenario)

Germany vs Russian ai
Germany meets a Russian attack

A range of hills rises from the edge of a vally. The ground is soft & muddy. Wooded areas interspersed with open fields lead up to a series of entrenchments holding the heights.

Your forces which are operational strength are setup on the Western border facing East.

[I don't remember the entire force mix but I had 60% infantry and Russia had 65% infantry and no tanks for either side. A little bit of mobile vehicles though about 10% and 5% artillery and 10% planes.] Also after futher inspection I only have 53 units not 80. And all the Mobile units are facing in the correct directions. It apparently is just the infantry that is having this issue of looking the wrong direction.

As for the text thing when you go into the game after pressing PLAY on the first page of selection(s) it says "Campaigns" I selected that and the I got all that I told you before. I think below "Campaigns" it says "Set Battles" then "Load Game" then "Multiplayer" etc. etc. after that. When I click on "Campaigns" then it goes to the campaign selection screen where you see 0 Tutorial then 1 hells gate then 8 Kharkov etc. etc. it runs outside that white rectangular box and just doesn't look conformed like maybe it should all be inside that white retangular box? Maybe this is WAD it just looks like it shouldn't look this way to me is all.

Also suggestion or question: The view cone for units viewing direction on the mini map is really rather small and chopped off. Is there any way to extend the view cone to look like an actual cone instead of having the lower portion cut off? Also any way it can be changed to White instead of blue? The blue color clashes with the color of my units and it is not easily noticeable without moving the mouse around quite a bit.
