Editor Question re Maps

Is there any way to export/recover a skirmish map from an LST save game file to use as a basis for creating your own campaign? If possible sure would beat having to start a map from scratch.

I'm afraid not. We tried to work out a clean way to save skirmish maps, but couldn't come up with an acceptable solution. Note that you can use the Random Map plugin in the editor (which is the same code as the Skirmish generator uses) to build a map, so it might be simpler to do that if you just want to avoid building maps from scratch. You can then tweak it and add units, etc, as you desire.

Cheers
