Need help with Off Map Artillery problem

RE: Need help with Off Map Artillery problem
Hi Dan,

This old man figured it out!  LMAO

It works. In my test scenario I placed 2 US Battleships (Strength of 12 each) as Off Board Artillery. The hexes I chose were (59,85) and (65,85) both to the bottom of my map beyond the map edge which is at (xx,81).

Then I saved and opened the scenario file using Notepad. Resulting codes lines below.

 6 59 85 10830 10420 1 1 12 100 7 0 0 3 3 3

6 65 85 10830 10421 1 1 12 100 7 0 0 3 3 3

The "red" numbers are the coordinates of the unit and the "blue" numbers are the unit strengths. 

For your info the 10830 is the unique unit number per the unit viewer. There is just not a "P" in front of it. If you open up the unit viewer and click on US Battleship you will see that same number.

In my post above you can change the blue number to be whatever you want as long as its greater than zero. Remember to keep the spacing between the numbers. Because is you don't the program won't like it and most likely will flip you off and crash.

If you have trouble I can always do it for you if you send me the file.

Good Luck Dan! I can't wait to see your finished product with this scenario.
Cheers!
