Don't know why I haven't come across this before - but I can't find an explanation in the manual for Special code 'TL'. Is it in the manual somewhere? Anyone know what it is? Thanks.

Hmm, good question, can you screenshot or tell me which map that is on?

I can add it to the list.

Thanks Jason. Maybe I'm reading it wrong. Hard to see without using your hypso mod. Dak To map. So, bootcamp 3, for example. It says 'TL', right?

Ah! Of course. Thanks. Couldn't find them in the manual. Are they in there?

I see now that it's obvious what they are as you play through Bootcamp 3 (which I'd never tried before), but couldn't find the symbol in the manual.

Thanks.

Good question, if not I am adding them today.

Yay for finding things!

I added it to section 3.1.11 in the manual.

I'll post the 1.30 UPDATE manual later today.

I understand your units get disrupted for awhile after using tunnels ?

BTW that image is really quite awesome, in that it really (to me at least) puts you in the mood, or immerses you in the feel of the Vietnam campaign, terrain wise.

I agree, the maps for this title are really superb, Zovs, best maps for a hex based game that I've ever seen, imho (at this scale, more or less). I like so much about them. The title is outstanding, I think. Great, 'natural', detailed maps, great AI (which really is saying something), superb historical felicity, great variety in the scenarios, very challenging gameplay in some scenarios, and always great fun. If I knew how to find emojis this is where I would do a hat's off emoji....
