Reinforcements

Hi, I am just in the planning stages of my campaign (cant say too much in case any of my squad mates look in here !)

I would like to ask a question about plottinging reinforcements.

I know you can move units via ships (tanks can be loaded into transport ships) moved and then disembarked to a new location.

My question is can a transport ship be pre-loaded with say 4 tanks (weight permitting of course) and left in a pre-arranged/designated non-attackable supply square in a corner of the map, waiting to be called into action should it be needed?

Hi Frior,

Certainly. Of course, you will probably have to declare the out of bounds zone.

The easiest way to pre-load ships is to put a ground supply point out to sea. Load the supply point with your tank reinforcements. Sail a ship close by. Commission the tanks into platoons. Load the tanks onto your ship.

Don't worry if you commission lots of tanks and the ship can't carry them all. If the tanks are at sea during a mission, they will not sink and they will be there waiting for loading next mission.

Cheers,
4Shades
