I booted up the scenario and had a look before I played it.
I was surprised to find out that the OBRAT (only checked the Brits) was WAY out to what they actually had. (for example, look at how many invincible class carriers they have) The UK lacks most of the forces that it used to reoccupy the islands such as the assault ships.
The Islands start in Argentinian hands, but on the West Island, there are British forces present when nothing should be present.
Is there a way I could help out to correct this scenario to make the ORBAT more realistic?

If you want to make some corrections to the scenario's orbat files, we would happily review them in order to replace the current files.

Some great documentaries on the Falklands war on YouTube, I was there a couple weeks ago chasing Harrier side links. I only vaguely remembered it as the UK kicking.. um.. bananas. =)

Re: CW Scenario - Falklands War
There seems to be a lots of problems with orbats in general. For example balkan nations in modern scenarios are very outdated - early 90's maybe even 80's info vs current situation. For some specific scenario its usually best to go to wiki pages or find some dedicated sites (if possible) for such events.

^ What Dylan said...
The new modding tools allow for editing of OOBs.

Re: CW Scenario - Falklands War
I booted up the scenario editor and loaded the scenario into it. I'm not sure why, but I've noticed a few things amiss such as start year and a few other things (the cache loads with a 1982 date however in game). Can someone confirm if its me or if its the editor?

The .scenario file uses a fast forward date.
