Great concept for a scenario! Something out the ordinary run and gun. Can't wait!

Good! Very good. We should have it ready this week. I usually post one on Sunday but could not make it this week. Look for it by next weekend, Mark. Thanks for the encouragement.

WB - An idea for a possible future scenario?.

Battle of Long Tan, Australians in Vietnam where Delta Coy 6RAR gained a US Presidential Unit Citation.

I seem to recall there being one scenario for this in SP2 (in an add-on pack?). Anyway - some links for your reference, one of those is a nice-lloking 125000 map.

I think it would be an excellent idea, Andy. I'll follow up on it and we'll see what we can do.

My first campaign might be on the Commonwealth forces and great battle of the Imjin where again a Presidential Citation was issued for the valiant stand of the Glosters at the River against the Chinese. What do you think?

looks good. I'll get started on it this week. Since I've not heard from Don on scenario numbering, I'll just add on to the point I had previously ended.

You will hear nothing from Don till the weekend, at the earliest as he is off camping. me, the removal men come tomorrow,and the phone has not yet been connected at the new flat, so I may well be offline for a while too.

2.0 upgrade is at Shrapnel, and should be ready some time this week (will be announced when ready).

Re Korean stuff - all to the good, that war has been a "forgotten" one for too long IMHO.
