Question about unit placement in a scenario


Recommended Posts

I've created a fictional map that I'm testing out a scenario on but I'm wondering how or even if you can place the defensive positions on the map.This would be a typical Allied assault on a heavily defended position.I've done my set up zones and I was testing how the AI does on setting pillboxes in key areas and I'm not getting the results I'd like,it's putting them in very odd areas.I have some VL on the map and it will deploy troops and some armor decently enough but can I somehow place the defenses myself? I can't find anything in the manual.This is for CMAK but I'm reading the CMBB manual,should be the same.Thanks

If you created the map you can certainly set the defense yourself. You can also lock the pillboxes while leaving the rest of the defense for the computer to set up. Once you are ready to set the defense preview the map and you should see all the forces available. You can place them anywhere you like. You should predetermine the setup zones so that you tell the computer the area you want it to use if you decide on letting the AI set up some of the defense at random.

My problem was that after I purchased some units I didn't know you had to go back in the map preview and set the units there,thanks for the help.One other question,I've set up my predetermined set up zones but if I take a VL flag say in a town that was previously in the Axis set up zone,will that Axis set up zone move back in relation to the amount of territory I take when the 2nd battle takes place?
