• So, campaign games can only be 8 vs. 8 missions?
  Maybe campaign squad could be bigger about 12 or 15 units and when playing a less units game you just choose which units you want to send to that battle. Also, this way you'll always have recruits to send to a certain death.
  What do you think?

• Campaign games can be any number of units, but since there's no missions where one side has more than 8 units, that's why I chose a squad of 8.
  
  As regards choosing which units to deploy, using that idea a player could always avoid selecting a high-ranking unit, meaning no other player will be able to kill them. I kind of like the idea of a player being forced to put their high-ranking units on the map, but then decide how much risk to put them in.

• Obviously units that doesn't battle would not receive any point, and I am assuming players will try to win as much as possible so they will use their better units but maybe not all of them.
  
  About the number of units, I'm telling you this because our first game that had to be removed was moonbase assault 2, wasn't it? Now I'm not sure. In this case each team has 12 units, so I assumed you changed the mission to moonbase assault for having too much units in game.
  
  Anyway, If I choose the assassins the units with higher rank will be in the game??

• WOW

• Wow indeed! I don't think either of us expected that, not least on the first turn. I'm afraid I may have to concede this one. At least my two "experienced" units survived.

• Ooops, looks like a small problem with the "concede": it thinks you conceded. Leave it with me...

• I'm always open to new ideas, so I'll add this feature and see how it goes.
  
  It looks like I got the missions mixed up as I thought the original mission was Moonbase assault, but now I think about it you were right. Also, your right about the unit count: there would still be a problem with Moonbase Assault 2 as it has 12 units, but I'll sort that easily.
  
  At the moment, until I make the change, your highest ranking units are chosen automatically. However, you'll get a non-campaign unit for Sterner Regnix.

• Just added this. You can now choose the order which your units are selected when viewing your campaign units.
