Scheer Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Hi guys, on a map I´m building, I´ve bought some units in the editor. They show up in the editor, no problem, but when I start a battle with that map, those units dont show up. Is there anything else I have to do ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkerner Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Scheer, did you place them on the map while you were in the editor? ("Deploy Axis units" or "Deploy Allied units")? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Field Marshal Blücher Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Are you sure they aren't designated as reinforcements? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scheer Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 Yeah, I did deploy them in the editor, and no, they aren´t designated as reinforcements. Just checked again, they dont show up in a QB, but do show in the editor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Mike Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Just checked again, they dont show up in a QB, but do show in the editor. I don't know, shouldn't a "Quick Battle" always just be the Map, without the units, as they will be bought additionally. Otherwise, predefined units should only be in a "Battle" ?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scheer Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 Mad Mike, at least in CMx1 it was possible to do just that, building a QB map and putting some units on the map. Then, when you start the battle, it just would ask you if you would like to import those troops. I assumed that in CMBN it would be the same. OTOH, maybe I´m not clever enough and forget sumthing, that I have to do to get those units .... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Mike Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Hi Scheer, I just had a look in the manual, I think for QBs you can only purchase units or let them be purchased automatically by the computer . It doesn't say anything about troops already being there pre-set by the map/scenario designer. What happens if you open your battle "normally", via the "Battle" option (top-most option)?

LemuelG Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Sounds suspiciously like a scenario 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scheer Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 So, if I understand this right, a.) if I put units on a map it is a scenario and cant be a QB. b.) my assumption that this would work like in CMx1 is wrong. I just wanted some trenches and wire for the defending side. Oh, well ... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Mike Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Unfortunately, that's what it looks like ... Good idea about the fortifications, would have given the defender some extra staying power. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scheer Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 Thats definite a feature I am missing from my old love, CMBO,CMBB and CMAK. Damn.
