Status: offline 		I read the manual, played and won the tutorial, and had fun doing so. I'm looking for good scenarios to play after this. I've had a look at the list and there are some pretty massive ones. I'm thinking of is something small and easy with not too many types of weaponry to use at the same time.

I’d suggest you to try the “Flesh and Steel” campaign, by Bill Wilder.

It’s a campaign, small both in # of scenarios and units involved, but with a high value when regarding the how and when of use of combined arms.

You can find it in the campaign list coming with the game.

Regards.

If you look for an extremely quick introductionary scenario, how about scen #206 'A lonely Tiger' by WBW?
It is without combined arms (no artillery), and you are just commanding 3 units, but it's a lot of fun to play (IMO).

The Germans and the Brits have a simultaneous airdrop around a vital bridge. Hilarity ensues.
It's small, plays fast and, due to the randomness of airdrops, emminently replayable.

One of my favorites (but no armor. )

I'm not sure if I have understood your question, but by pressing 'H' you can see your order of battle and by selecting a formation, you should see a list which unit will arrive at what turn at which reinforcement hex (R-Force 1, T5 would mean that it arrives in the 5th turn at reinforcement hex 1).

As mentioned in my other thread I won a marginal victory.
