Can't in Badlands.

In the following mission Dogs Of War you will be able to recruit forces of all types into groups as reinforcements as long as a group exists. NPCs will call in additional ones then as you lose them.

So anyone know how to add units to the AI groups in Badlands ?

I tried selecting 6 of my own men (not Razor :) ) and saw that "send Units" in the menu now listed my men. Eg: "send Units 6,7,8,9,10,11"

Pressing Enter at this point does nothing.

Read comment above yours :)

You can't do this in Badlands, only in Dogs Of War can you send units from your squad to reinforce platoon or squad groups.

ok, thanks, thus in campaign missions it's not possible. Instead creating a mission in edit menu, is it possible to provide high commander with a function that allows to create new groups? Because if there's no pissibility of recruiting new units and put them into a new group, in addition to own, it would just be a shame..

Not possible to create from scratch, no.

But again you can create a current group into any form of combat unit you want: all tank, infantry, snipers, attack helis, transport units, resupply plattons, or a merge of all. Just not in Badlands, only in following Dogs Of War mission. DOW mission will allow you to recruit units and place them into groups that already exist.

You can do it in the editor with scripting. Like go to editor, place a barracks down, put the script code to buy a group in the Barracks Int. line then when you play online or single you can buy groups from your barracks.

Take a look at these:
