Status: offline 		Good question, i've been hunting around the map for my air units. After reading your post i went and checked the OOB screen, i can't even get my air units to show in the OOB screen, even when i click the air box. It must be a typo, but i am curious why my air units don't show in the OOB window.

I forgot how good these games are and how much fun they are to play, even with an abundance of clicking. WTP may be my favorite of the bunch as i've logged the most hours into it over the years. For this average gamer it seems pretty well balanced.

Looking forward to the new Decisive Campaigns game in a few months.

It looks as if the game never had that feature completed.

Thanks for that important tip!
