Aussie units won't load from Sydney

[mephistofileez]

Hey guys,

I decided to finally break down and "ask for directions". I've played WitP years ago, and just now purchased the AE version. I thought I finally figured out how to load troops and move them about, but for some reason I can't get troops to load from Sydney to reinforce PM. When I call up the load troops screen, I only get the unit attached to the SW Pacific. PM is under Aussie command, as are all the troops in Sydney, the port is big enough, and the troops are all strat and ready to go...any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Australia Command (R) units cannot ever load on a ship. That's what the (R) means. You have to pay PPs if you want to move them. Same as in WITP, only WITP didn't have the handy (R) to remind you.

You'll need to transport them by air. The troops are not allowed to board transports because once on board there's nothing in the program to prevent you from unloading them at an illegal base.

Let's face it-would you want to load up in a nice place like Sydney to go to some malarial fen to face a fanatical opponent and maybe get sunk on the way? I mean, I'd find some reason to not load too![:D]
