Don´t know whether this has already been mentioned: If I recall correctly, there is a line in gameconstants that allows you to setup your troops pre-battle in ground combat. Just change the "false" into "true" statement. if you can´t find it - do a text search for "setup" in the xml-files. You may drag your troops inside the reinforcement area and hit start in the little reinforcement window to start the frag. But when i tried a mp map against cpu, the game wouldn´t start because there are no reinforcements to drag from - hence no "start" button, so this will only work in sp mode. don´t know about defense scenarios - i only tested attack. and it didnt do anything about space combat. Gal Conquest was quite some disappointment: The AI would not attack or build. i eased this with a new campaign, where i gave the rebels tech level 1 (big map). they seemed to start out with tech 0 and never got off hoth. still it could do better - i have the feeling the ai doesnt build enough economic base. once i got half the map it seemed crippled and needed days to get some ships going at me. i think they got tech upgrades quite quickly in my last run. devnull
