SlowMotion Posted November 12, 2002 Share Posted November 12, 2002 Originally posted by Zarquon: Repurchasing would be neat as long as it's possible to mark certain units that must be included in the new force, e.g. the Big Cat or an engineer platoon. This is possible already by designing a scenario map and placing the units that must be included. Save the scenario. Then start a QB, say 1000 points. On the screen where you can choose the map, pick your scenario and include units. Now both sides have the required units plus they can purchase some or let the computer randomly purchase some. This is a *very* cool new feature! One of the great things about this is that it allows a new kind of game: in PBEM, both sides can go and study the map and the included units in advance. This doesn't spoil the scenario because some will be purchased. It is easy to make variants by changing the number of points people can use for buying and also all the other QB parameters.
