Maybe unload them?
SEALs can swim you know.
SEAL units have a fair amount of smoke available to them and "just happen" to have thermal vision.
The now the empty boats make great fire magnets!

When firing the enemy frequently reveals their position, SEALs "just happen" to make fairly good forward observers, and I seem to recall a rather large number of aircraft /drones with precision munitions being in the scenario.

This is a question for everyone else.......would anyone think their best option would be to dive out of a boat and swim in this game?

If that is in the mission brief/write-up for the scenario, then sure; if it's not, then I am not likely to try the option, given that sometimes the game has the nasty habit of killing units in water if they don't have the magic water movement number.

So if the scenario calls for units to play frogman and swim in the surf or river, then cool; otherwise, I would be moving the boats and still wondering why boats don't have some kind of smoke generation device...

Exclamation Re: Scenarios and/or Campaigns for 2023

Exactly, when all the units appeared I saved the game so I don't have to start up with the airshow and much to my surprise the B zodiac WILL allow you to unload but the C zodiac......NOT SO MUCH



Fortunately, if you can get the Vipers to that end of the island they can thin the opposition a bit and then you can put the wet guys back in their boat and get to shore..... or at least that's what I managed to do



So "be creative" folks. Now that everyone knows what to do...... enjoy!

I guess I just assumed everyone that played WinSPMBT knew US Navy SEALs are frogmen.

Revised scenario included.

Just a note that SEALs and USMC Recon can swim.

I try to create scenarios that require the player to think a bit not just shoot.
