Case is right, Jim. You should use a Bradley. The LAV is lightly armoured by comparison with a Bradley and is used only by the USMC.
If you want elite British infantry then you should either use Paras or Royal Marine Commandos
If the scenario is set in 1991 you should also use a Challenger 1 not Challenger 2:Attached FilesComment

Thank you, Gareth. I exchanged the British Tanks. Btw, do you have also a M-2 Bradley?Comment

Re: Re: Re: UNITS!
The only way this could work would be if a land, sea or non nuke air unit attacked a landed nuke. Nuke blasts aren't regular attacks and aren't detected by events.Originally posted by jim panse

I meant it the other way round: The "Nuke Readying wonder" enables both sides to build nukes. These missiles need to be stockpiled somewhere. And that´s the idea beyong it: If those missiles are destroyed by the enemy you will receive replacement units.
Retaliation will happen when the nukes of the enemies are on their way.Comment

Exactly.
I suppose you could just let the nukes be buildable.The AI anyway has a habit of using nukes a lot, so after the first nuke is launched the nuclear holocaust you are eager to achieve will propably take place."Military training has three purposes: 1)To save ourselves from becoming subjects to others, 2)to win for our own city a possition of leadership, exercised for the benefit of others and 3)to exercise the rule of a master over those who deserve to be treated as slaves."-Aristotle, The Politics, Book VII

UNITS!!!
Based upon Jimmywax´ M2 Bradley I´m using the gfx after making some minor changes. I hope you do not mind, Jimmy!
BTW, what do you think now of the units?

AFAIK, the Marder only has one cannon
Other then that, it's an excelent and very good looking selection of units (though I'd personally switch the Scottish troops to regular Brits and replace one of the Warsaw Pact infantry units with a French infantry unit - historically, the French fielded units with quite different (and superior IMO) structures to the rest of NATO.)'Arguing with anonymous strangers on the internet is a sucker's game because they almost always turn out to be - or to be indistinguishable from - self-righteous sixteen year olds possessing infinite amounts of free time.'

Next changes:
The Marder cannon has been changed. Thanks Nick!
The AH-64A Apache has now also a unit shield.
If I seperate the French and the British Infntry from the NATO troops what schould I do with the Benelux States´ Armies? I decided to leave the NATO and the Soviet Bloc infantry as they are.
I hope you understand that.

Looks good. I have to agree with Case - you should replace the Scottish Regiment with either standard British infantry or, if you want elite infantry, either Paras or Royal Marine Commandos. If you realy want to keep 'em Scottish, then you should change the name: 'Royal Highlanders' don't exist. 'Black Watch' or 'Scots Guards' or just 'Highland Regt' are alternatives.
Having that bloke emerge from the Warrior driver's viewport looks kinda stupid, if you don't mind me saying
BTW, you've removed my sig from the Challenger
...and to be even more petty, the Yanks don't paint big white stars on the side of their Abrams tanks

If you say so ..... I will remove it.Having that bloke emerge from the Warrior driver's viewport looks kinda stupid, if you don't mind me saying
Oooops, sorry. Please forgive me, Gareth.BTW, you've removed my sig from the Challenger
This I knew but I painted the white star there to make it easier to reckon´ as an Yakee unit....and to be even more petty, the Yanks don't paint big white stars on the side of their Abrams tanksComment
