Scenario 2 - What am I doing wrong.

Post by PatCleburne »

Ok, so I load up Scenario 2. I put a regiment on the farm and send Merideth there. Objective secure. With the balance of my brigade, I quickly take the woods. I leave a regiment of 200+ men sitting on the woods and no Rebs anywhere near, with the exception of a captured regiment of the rebs. The objective never became mine. What am I missing?

Thanks.

C,

You need top leave more men AND yourself at the objective point. If screen up the map and pass the curser over it, it will tell you haw many men you need to have there to activate it. Ther must always be a command officer at the OP.

Then how am I supposed to hold the TWO objectives with my one commander, Merideth?

You must be talking about scenario 3. You aren't supposed to hold the two objectives, just choose one of them. The Herbst Woods OBJ is the one you want as it's worth 200 points a minute. Make sure you have at least 200 men and your commander. Take it as quick as you can, setup a defensive formation to fight off any counter attack.

Ahh, this should become much easier. Danke. We will take those woods. :)
