Status: offline 		NOOB question. What is the best way to create an aircraft detachment? IE. split a squadron.
And is there a way to specify how many aircraft can be in said detachment.


Same question but for LCUs also.

Thanks in advance

Status: offline 		note: when splitting a sqn or LCU, set the TOE upgrade to OFF. if upgrades are ON, you could get a prob - if sub-units A & B might auto-upgrade, but there aren't be enough planes or devices in the pools to upgrade sub-unit C, you won't be able to re-combine the unit. you'll have to wait until your plane / device production has allowed all 3 sub-units to upgrade to the same 'spec'.

Status: offline 		Sorry for the not so prompt reply but I have been looking and don't wont to look to stupid; however, I have looked all over all types of units but I do not see a divide button. I am choosing any ole base and randomly choosing all kinds of ground units and air but I still do not see the divide button.

Could you post a screen shot so I can see if I have a display error?

Status: offline 		Only Divisional size LCU's can be divided. You can't dvide smaller LCU's (unfortunately).

Air units can not be devided if they are a detachement already and maybe some other rules apply, i am not sure.

The divide unit button is located close to the bottom left of the troop information screen (the screen you get when selecting a LCU/Air unit).

If it isn't there, you can't divide the unit.

Cheers,

d0mbo.
