Marking Hostiles and Positions as an objective
Is it possible to use something like a trigger to make marking an enemy position or LZ a completable objective? Binoculars or the placeable marker or the map could be used.

For example, if I was to make a recon mission where the objective is to find several hostiles and mark their positions. Alternatively it could be something like a Pathfinder unit inserting behing enemy lines and marking a drop zone for a larger body of troops.

Yes, I believe so.

You would assign a couple of units as "targets" and when a player uses the binoculars or any other device to either "reveal" or just mark them. And when that condition fires you add the task on the fly.

It's a little bit tricky though.
