One question. In original game in Chambois mission (the last one) - there are a couple of objectives. No problems, but - to reach the Medal of Honor a special amount of German casualties has to be achieved. Ok, so I wait with completion of the other objectives and continue to kill the enemy. But ... my Allies here (Polish troops) are themselves, without my control, taking some points, so the objective to clap a Falais trap (pocket) should be sometimes completed before I can reach the medal. Does anyone know the solution? I know one, of course, - to bomb their base to stone age not to be able to send out another engineers teams to take another points, but .... I think this is not so correct. I do not like a friendly fire at all and it does not suit to me so much. While playing I use trainer and FOW_RevealAll command and excellent Ewiger Krieg Mode. Thanks.

I have encountered a similar problem on the Carentan:Counter-Attack mission, in addition to the final mission.

Effectively disabling the other allies' base, as you mentioned, is one method to prevent them from advancing and capturing territory. However, I believe there is an alternative, not involving friendly fire.

Select the other allied team's units, and drain their health using the CH trainer.

In doing so, the German units should have no problem killing those units off. Preventing the other allies from advancing.

This method would seem to be quite tedious and time consuming but in theory, it should work.

You are right. Your method should work too - I am gonna try it. But, anyway, both methods are not so fair to the allies. Maybe anyone else has another one, how to command them. Knightpress knows this game best of all, so he probably will know, how to stop their movement.

I really don't know if it's going to work but you can try the signal flares close to the tactical map button if it doesn't work then hurting them could be the only way.

Thanks, TheKahn. I will try it with flares too.

Hmmm well i was trying my theory but as always Relic managed to put one over me.The flares were available in skirmish only as I noticed just a minute ago.Oh well it was a good theory , come to think of it I have never noticed that the flares weren't available in campaign.

Thanks anyway.
