The only things that carry over are attributes of things found in the OOB file, either directly (both scenarios use the same OOB file), or indirectly (two or more OOB files linked together with an ORG file.) Unit strengths, and leaders are being tracked, basically. I believe JT has a mechanism for c... |

Crank up the fire power in the pdt file, and melee will fade into the background.

"Also, think that the disrupt to infantry should not be automatic but based on a morale check." If I recall correctly, disruption is not automatic. It is because of a morale check.
