Random battle and other questions

I haven't played in a while and it seems there have been some nice additions especially plugins but I don't see any directions.
So let's say I want to setup a campaign with several scenarios using different multi maps with victory flags, random enemies and a list of units I can buy. Is there instructions for this somewhere? If not, how can I do it?
Also, there is now a reverse for tanks. How does this work?
And what is the plugin edging?
Thanks for any help.

Not sure what you mean by multi maps?
The VP and random enemy plugins bot have a help popup which gives you the basics of how they work. The VP plugin is designed to make placing VPs and setting up victory conditions very simple. The random enemy plugin allows you to place enemy teams, and then have them randomised by using their team points value to remove some of the units you place until they hit the points total.
Reverse for tanks now allows you to reverse a single tile. You can do this more than once per turn if you have enough APs.
The edging plugin is designed to help with the chore of edging water tiles when building maps. You place the water where you want it, then hit the button to apply the edges.
Hope that helps! And glad you have returned to the fold
Cheers
Pip

Yeah, this helps. If it's all simple and is explained by popups in the editor I should be good to go. I'll have to reread Junk's treatise on making a campaign, probably next week. This will really extend the playability of the game.

The help popups are triggered by small ? buttons on each plugin panel. Anything that isn't obvious - let us know!
