There are limits in formation number per side. You take it up to 100 per side, and thats it. If you call reinforcements when you have 100 formations, you don't get any. Not even after you've killed one formation. It this balancing your force that is exiting in this game. Limits usually comes when playing big. If you want those 3 Tiger companies and don't need recons, do it, but... I have played many 20k each games in LAN or in hotseat and they are fun, but there is also much work per turn. You can easily take one hour for one turn to move and shoot your troops. 15k works in pbem, some has had problems when both have 20k, so don't tease yourself and stay with 15k, or then lower it to 12k, as you have enough in that also. Might even help in formations count.
Map: Mail me directly, I can set lines ASAP. But if you or someone else is interested here it goes:
First harder way:
Load map to the editor. Click 'deploy'. Now there is at lowest left corner of your toolbar three green flags. Click it and you get in the starting-line set up window. Now you click blue flag and set start clicking north-south line for player one. After you are finished with that take and do it with green flag to set up player two's starting line. When you're happy get out of deploy and go to edit-map. Save map there and map is saved with starting line-info.
Second easier way:
After you have loaded map in the editor, set up visibility to 50, (or how long area you want between players,) get yourself in deploy phase and go to lowleft corner, those three green flags, click red flag to let engine set up starting line automatically. (It checks visibility setting and sets lines so that neither of players can't see enemy troops at deploy-phase.) Now get to edit-map and save map.
Now you'll go to battle generator and load map by 'map as designed'.
Remember then that you don't have to send map to your opponent, after you have saved email game, mapdata is included in the save.
hope this helps
