Hello Bracken: Yes that's me. I'm impressed that you remembered me. Thanks for the information about wicki which I'll sure check out. Knew about dslyecxi. Will look at the latter again because it seemed oriented to multi player. I played all of OFP campaign and expansion packs. This game is pretty darn good; and I understand that OFP will be coming out early next year, about a year or so behind schedule. Nice to hear from you. All the best. pukey

I downloaded the game and do not have the instruction manual that would normally come with the game if purchased at a store. Can someone please tell me where I can find the manual that can be downloaded. Thanks in advance. pukey

The way to complete this mission is to take your team around to the entrance (on the right of the camp) and set up the team to take out each and every man. When I did it the two urals never moved. After I killed all the bad guys, my team was still alive, we moved to the garage and I had No. 2 place the satchel charges. I never looked for the radio and think by killing all the bad guys there was no one to use it. We then backed off to the entrance, blew the charges and destroyed the urals. Then we ran as fast as possible to get to the chopper rendezvous, before the enemy came with reinforcements. Good luck. pukey

Believe it or not I just finished the mission successfully, blowing up the two ammo Urals and running like hell to the chopper. I never did solve the "hold fire" problem. But, when I got near the gate ordered my two men to "engage at will". My No. 2 man with the satchel charges was relieved of the "hold fire" but No. 3 man wasn't. Anyway I got it done, how I'm really not sure. Thanks for your interest and the other Forum members who tried to help me. pukey

Tried everything since posting and receiving advice. Nothing works so it must be a bug. I sure hope the new patch comes out soon. pukey

thanks Call911: I tried this before and nothing happened. Nobody fired and the red circle remained. Must be a bug. But I appreciate your advice. pukey

Thanks Kay: Yes I've tried everything, including clicking on target, engage,engage at will, fire, etc., and nothing works. I will reload and start over, trying again to have them hold fire, then hoping to cancel the order. If a bug I hope the to be released patch will fix it. All the best. pukey

I just put my 2 men on "hold fire". A little while later I wanted to cancel that order, but no matter what I did, the red circle bar by their icons would not go away. Please, will someone tell me what to do that will cancel the "hold fire" order? Thank you. pukey

Thanks again Trapper, you are mighty helpful. Yes, I'm the squad leader and now I realize that at least one of my men has strayed. I'll be more watchful in the future. All the best. pukey

Hi Trapper: This mission is one of the "single missions" entitled "Commander". Yes, I had the 7 soldiers disembark at the first small city where we killed the enemy and the tank and then were ordered to where I am now. Don't know why my men won't follow me on foot no matter what orders I issue from the Command menu. Any ideas, suggestions are appreciated. pukey

In a number of the missions, both Campaign and Missions, I get a voice message, "where are you"? Is there any way to answer? I can't find anything in the command menu. Any and all advice will be very much appreciated. Thanks. pukey

I'm playing USA version, Regular. Killed all the bad guys at the intermediate location; blew up the tank and then was ordered to 2nd platoon rendezvous. I took the men into a truck most of the way, disembarked and got close to the location. Then the men would not follow me. Used "move" command to go to a certain point. Used "Return to Formation", used "Action" command' nothing worked. I must be doing something wrong but can't figure out what it is. Will someone please help. Thank you. pukey

To Maverick806 and Andersson: I just found the "editor" in the menu for the game; and after looking at it I haven't any idea how to use it in connection with a chopper. Didn't see anything referring to the chopper. I'm just plain ignorant in this area. Is this the "editor" where one can create his own missions? pukey
