Lieutenant, which supposedly is the trigger for the error message I was getting. And to boot I was being insulted at the same time with another message saying "you are not the commander you thought you were!" OUCH!!!  There's nothing like being bitch slapped by the AI in a video game!!!Truer words were never spoken. |

Ok, so I completed the 3rd random mission, which was pretty darn hard BTW, and got promoted to Oberlieutenant and went through the steps of advancing to Chapter 3, and the first mission is different from the last time! I didn't think the historical missions would be random! So I'm just gonna play it out and see what happens. I certainly don't want to skip a historical mission. I will say I've picked up a few tips in that last random mission in combating the AI's aircraft, and whoever told me about CAP planes attacking ground targets when in view of ground forces was a good tip because it also works for your own CAP, which is something I never realized. So they not only attack other aircraft but they'll also take out soft ground targets, which is nice!! I'm looking forward to tonight's session!!  |

Do you have installed the patches(MB1.1, Somlensk_Fix) and the Enviro_update ? I ask that just to know.

Totally different map and objectives! I have not installed the patches as of yet. To be honest it totally slipped my mind! But I'll install them before I start the next map.

Are you sure that you are playing historical mission? Maybe you started another random mission or you must first complete a single random mission before historical is unlocked (like in vanilla BK). |

It was the first mission in Chapter 3. After completing it, which wasn't nearly as hard as the last random mission in Chapter 2, it put me back in the mission that started this thread, with the two bridges. So now we'll see if I get that Failed Mission popup after repairing the stone bridge.
Maybe the first mission in Chapter 3 is supposed to be random by design?

Ok, it wasn't pretty, but I finished the twin bridge mission. Gaining that next rank got me past the failed mission popup. There was a lot going on on that map though. Artillery everywhere! I wound up repairing both bridges, which came in handy in flanking behind one of the AI counter attacks. I did find that the best way for me get rid of the annoying artillery was to send some armor to that area of the map and just take them out.
