Some minor confusion on my part. Are the mega campaigns tactical or strategic? I read about it being a role playing game and I am not sure if that means I get to move individual tanks or whole armys. John M.

[QUOTE]Originally posted by slammer: [QB]Some minor confusion on my part. Are the mega campaigns tactical or strategic? I read about it being a role playing game and I am not sure if that means I get to move individual tanks or whole armys. It's like a standard, user made campaign...except.. A. Your core is preselected and gets upgrades at certain times in the campaign, B. You have a lot more options, per scen, than you do in any sort of normal campaign. In fact, from what Bill's said, the choices you make, between scen's, determine - along with your victory level - what scen you get next. C. Your commander - ie you :) - can get promoted, ,medals, etc, etc. I'm sure Bill or others will pipe in with more clarifications, too. Alex

I think you did very well, Alex. Not really much to add. Alex was right in the middle of the battle, being a top notch play tester for MCNA. So she knows whereof she speaks. These are tactical level battles just like in SPWAW or any scenario/campaign that you play...WITH the exceptions Alex has noted. It should have some good replay value choosing different options or new battles. It will also depend on how well you do as to which battle you'll be facing next. Quite an adventure...WB

Thanks alot Alex and Bill for the info. I must say that the Matrix forums are an excellent source of info. Usually a question is answered quickly by the many knowledgeable forum members. I look forward to v5.0 and the mega-campaigns.
