I just played the first scenario listed in the game for Korea, 8/50. Before anything, I want to say that this is a fine piece of work, and many houndreds of hours must have been put into it.

I noticed that Hellcats were used for air support. I don't think Hellcats were used in Korea, rather Corsairs, Phantoms, and Panthers as fighters.

Also looking in weapons selections I can find no napalm listed for aircraft to modify existing loads for AC.

Did I miss it? And why were Hellcats used in the scenario I wonder.

Hi Bill - welcome to WinSPMBT.

And you are right, by Korea the only ones would be some recce drones, according to a quick google search . The OOB has them available till 1951, which is way too late - maybe 1947/8 as a max I think.

Weapons 221 and 223 in the USMC database are napalm.

However the 2 napalm weapon items as you point out, are not coming up in the scenario editor as choices in the weapon section of the change unit data. Looks like I'll need to fix that one.

Cheers
Andy
