Ok I am playing scenario 15 ( I believe that is it, the long war starting at 7 Dec 41) and am almost to February 42.

I was looking through the editor and discovered I am missing some units in my game. I loaded the proper scenario so thats not the problem.

The following units are not present in the game.....

1st DAF Aviation supposed to be at Batavia starts game there, no delay

2nd DAF Aviation supposed to be at Soerabaja starts game there , no delay

2nd USMC Para Bn supposed to arrive at San Diego on 8 December 1941

And last but not least .......
The 3rd USA Division is listed as being at Seattle but has a delay of 9999 meaning it will never appear.

Twotribes,

Not sure about the rest but my guess about the US 3rd Infantry Division is that the US receives alot of units more or less immediately if the Japanese player attempts to land in the Continental US. It could be 3rd Inf is one of those units.

Also, do you have the latest patch? Pry wrote a Scenario 16 which starts Dec 8th and does include the 2nd Marine Para Battalion in San Diego.

I also have a question. Many units in the editor show up as 0 Morale and 0 experience, but still tend to show up in game. What is the reason for this? I know some units have a delay date but dont understand the units with no delay and also having no moral or experience.

Pretty sure the morale and experience is based from a table for that nationality, 0 allows the table to be used. I know ships work that way.

I was wrong about the Dutch Units they are there, but I have never seen the USMC Para unit in several restarts.

Thanks, that makes sense, so I am to understand that the start morale and experience of those units is variable, based on the table?

Thats the way Ships work, so I guess same for Ground units.

The 3rd ID was historically located in Seattle before it went to Europe, it was placed as a garrison for Seattle and attached to the West Coast command, However some sneaky folks started buying the 3rd and using it in the Pacific so it got removed to keep from being used non historically in the game.

Is the 2nd Marine Para not arriving on Dec 8th in scenario 15???

the 0 Morale and 0 experience just mean that the unit will arrive with the national averages for the time they arrive that is listed in the Manual

I have started scenario 15 4 times and have never seen the USMC Para Bn arrive. Now 2 of those were with original version so not sure if it was there then.

I am nearly at the end of February 1942 and still dont have the Para Bn.

Are you using the latest patch? My version is all patched up and I do see this unit in San Diego on Dec 8th.

Yes latest game is with latest patch.

I too am missing the 2nd Marine Para Bn. Running 1.21. Made a copy of Scenario 15 and changed the arrival base from San Diego to 000 and it showed up. Something about San Diego??
