Hello!!

im making my first scenario, its based on this article:
https://medium.com/war-is-boring/216d502626b8
you command a small group of F-22 and with (computer controlled) ukranian forces (su-27, su-25, and mig 29) must:

-destroy incoming russian bombers (su-34/Su-24)
-prevent damage to key targets (bridges, oil refinery, land battlegroups)
-damage enemy land forces.

my questions are:

i've 2 invading forces, one mechanized (4x T90, 6x BMP3, 6x BTR90, 2x TOR, 2x Tunguskas, 2x BM-30 Smerch) and one amphibious force (10x BMD3/4, 4x ZSU-23-2, 2x2S23 Nona) are they ok? or must i change any of them?

Are Goverment Buildings on densely populated areas legal targets (to be attacked with smart bombs)?

Same question on rail/road bridges

Thanks!

(sorry for my english, its not my native languaje)

Sounds good.

That's up to you. If you think they should be targets, make them targets. If you think they're too iffy, then don't make them targets.
