    This is confusing. I'm in a situation where one of my guys is in a firefight with two other guys. I can take out the first one, but if I hang around for longer than 2 seconds, the second one will kill me. I tried to set a timer to 2 seconds and then use the "continue on sight" command followed by duck, but he won't stop focusing on the enemy.

    If I use those commands straight away, without the timer, he obeys. Am I doing something wrong or is it not possible to use those commands on a timer?

    Me and Pocketnova only completed game 1. We still have to play at least once more.
    Pocketnova: I'll set up the next game.

    I've had that same issue before, I can't remember how I did it. Try using the zone commands.

    Sorry GiHubb, I'll try to take my turn as soon as possible, but I'm going on a long-ish drive in a bit, but I'll try to take this evening at latest.

    I got most of my information from the superior PC tutorial, but yes, I've watched all of the videos too.
    I'll go back and check.

    Edit: It tells me what I already knew, to be honest. So you're saying it's definitely not possible to set a "continue on sight" command to a timer and you have to use ignore instead?

    I thought Contiune on Sight was only used when an enemy enters your line of sight. If the second enemy was already in the LoS then he's already been sighted and the command would only be for new hostile targets.

    Ignore Unit would let you fight the first hostile then continue on to avoid the second before it's kill time gets too high.

    That crossed my mind too, but he's already engaging with the first enemy, and the "continue" command WILL make him break away mid-fight. It's only on the second enemy and using a timer that I can't get it to work, which is what confuses me. I'm not sure if it's a bug/oversight or just slightly unintuitive rules.

    Is 2.99 a sale or permanent price drop?

    I think only the devs can answer this question. But if I didn't purchase it already, I would skip my next coffee and buy this instead!

    I have a suspicion that GiHubb might just beat me 2-0. I have one unit, he has three ;) It's another game of hide and seek though... 0.0

    Yes, just won that game, sorry Pocketnova but it was intense although match 2 was more static.
    So I'm supposed to play CoreyB next? If so, what is your username? You can PM me if you like and I would PM back my username.

    Just looked at the chart on page 37, aren't I supposed to play either you or TwentyOne on my next round?
    If so, CoreyB: I guess this would be a practice match :)

    Is it just me or did anyone else suddenly get access to the RED campaign?

    I've had the DLC for a while but only today did it actually appear in my offline campaign selection.

    Hey guys. Sorry but because our game is still going I thought you two may as well just start the next round. Is that cool?

    Ready when you are Twenty One :)

    Wow I'm getting quite the arse kicking from CoreyB. He destroyed me on match 1 and is already leading match 2.

    I got access to it the moment I bought it, about a week ago. Though I did sign in with the account on PC first, in order to activate it.

    That's probably what happened. I got a Steam update that added Cards and after launching it and playing online for a bit. Later that same day is when I saw it on my iPad.
