So, I've just played the "Ate Up" scenario as Nato (got arse kicked as per usual), but noticed that when I got the pop-up window telling me about an imminent airstrike the targets listed were from my own side. Is this how it's supposed to work? It's no big deal - the airstrikes went ahead against the enemy - but slightly perplexing.

Do you have a screen shot or save game we can look at?

Neither I'm afraid, but I'll play through the scenario again and try to get both.

Thanks. Those items really do help us pin down the cause of many bugs.

Sorry about the delay - had to play through again. Anyway here is what I was talking about. It may be merely that I'm misunderstanding what the pop-up is telling me...

That's a bug. Do you have a save game you could send us? Also what version of the game are you playing? Thanks.

The "targets" listed in the pop-up window are not really the "target" but the aircrafts that are attacking the hex. So instead of the window saying "4xM1A1 Abrams targeting location 2321", it should read something like "2xA-10 targeting location 2321". The line underneath it should also reflect the AC that is attacking.

I just ran several tests and could not duplicate this bug. If you have the saved game for the turn it appeared, you can send it to me to look at. Thanks
