So I'm doing the first mission in the allied campaign and I'm confuzzled.

The briefing says to Exit Fox Company...but I can't see anywhere on the map that is an exit point and there's no "tac" map in the briefing section.

Anyone done this mission and, if so, where do I exit Fox Company?

Thanks

Through the far left corner of the map, as seen from the drop zone. Have you the display landmarks option enabled?

No - I didn't - thank you. I was tearing my hair out AND Fox Company is split over the map  ::)

Cheers and don't despair,  the scenario isn't a cakewalk, but it is not necessary to absolutely crush the Germans in order to progress through the campaign.

Well - Fox is off map. Easy are assaulting the final village with a couple of bunkers...very little resistance but what is there is tough.  14 minutes left

I think I've come across the bug where I can't get troops into a building. The "waypoint" just won't go in the building. It goes all around, but not in. I've had it several times in this scenario and all of the other times I've managed to manipulate the map so I can get a clean click on the building...but seemingly not this time.

That does suck. I am very fortunate that my chipset isn't amongst those for which the compiler Battlefront is using generates bad code. On the brighter side, BFC just produced yet another patch covering for further instances of the bug (1.02). Let's see how long until they get rolling the patch for CMBN/FI 3.0.

Oh, wait. This game takes place back when people were actually grateful to someone who liberates them from tyrants.

Sorry to hear you might have that building entry bug.
If you want to play PBEM any time feel free to contact me. Perferably something without too big of a force.

I'm taking a guess CMH is the new DLC. I don'tn have that - it won't be a problem I presume as any scenario I choose won't have them in it
