Yes, I am making a campaign loosely based upon the British in Burma. I threw in a beach assault for the hell of it. It utilized the 26th Regiment of Foot. Well, in my infinite knowledge I made the British OOB part of the first scenario. Is there any way I can transfer the OOB from the scenario to the campaign? Reason is I went and renamed all the units according to type and platoon#/company#/battalion#. And that's a lot of work with 3 battalions of Brits (3 companies/battalion, 3rd battalion is 1 co. of sappers and various other specialty units). Anyways, was just wondering there.

Hello Zero:

Great idea for a campaign. If I understand you correctly, you renamed all the units in a specific scenario and now want to include it in a campaign? If I understand your question correctly, the answer is quite simply "Yes."

A campaign is nothing more than some scenarios linked together. Inserting a scen into a campaign is explained in the Manual. If you need help, send me a email and I will try to help you.

If you want to keep the same units (and names) throughout the campaign, well, this can be done but you eliminate three important features in a campaign: 1) Selecting core units, and 2) seeing the experience increase and 3) eventually upgrading your core units. Many people like this features.

You will have to set all units in each scen as "Auxilary" for the P1 player in each scen. Make sure you don't provide any build points. If you need more info, let me know.

Good luck!

I was hoping that I could use that OOB and have it continue from scen. to scen.
