Hello Adraeth,

The linked carryover will only be in the campaign. As Skirmish maps are all individual and randomly generated then they will not carryover, but you can mod the game to create your own linked campaigns if you know how to do this.

The new version does allow for custom built campaigns which can build carryover campaigns using the skirmish generator.

Cheers

If you play the campaign missions in co-op will the carryover work or only in single player?

Multiplayer campaigns aren't supported unfortunately. Sorry! They are on our wishlist, but they are a pretty major change.

No worries, I will still be purchasing the Expansion. In the base BA2 game I played [almost] all the campaigns through twice, in order, with 2 different friends in co-op mode. It was a blast. I plan to do the same with the expansion campaigns although I might have to try them solo now to experience the carryover effect.

Maybe one day you guys will get it working because it's quite a but more fun and rewarding in my opinion, winning missions with a mate than solo. :)

Hello Pip et al

Just wondering if any work has been done on the hill LOS problems that many reported on and supplied screenshots?

Thanks in advance,

I don't think that we made any major changes to the LOS code.
