How do I buy units in skirmish?

[EF]

So I completed first US mission and it was fine, reinforcemnts were given automatically. Now in second mission I have 8 men squad and I can't but anything more! I've captured 3 points and I still have 8 men, whenever I click any unit in menu nothing happnes, it just gies red. It says that I have 1300/2000 MP points.

What's wrong?? I can't hold all those points I got, and if I put at least 1 soldier to defend, I have no attacking force!

good question - so when you click the reinforcement unit/s you want - there is a red arrow that that will appear - you need to left click on the map to call them in - they will walk to that point. I'd suggest until you get a better handle on the micro, call your troops in and point somewhere before the front line, so you don't forget and have them get ambushed.

so left click on unit to buy and then left click on screen - wherever you want them to go. once they spawn you should see a message that says reinforcements have arrived or something cheesy like that. You can than drag and break the squad and move them wherever you want.

Ahhh, so it's no like in multiplayer where you just click! Well I was still playing after I posted and accumuleted 2k points, now I have waaaay too much units, lol.

Uh, can I ask anotehr question here?
How do I capture enemy tank? I can't find 'get in' action, contextual action is attack even tho I tank is empty.

I believe if the tanks hull has been breached you can't capture it.
Although if you hit the tank in such a way that injures the crew, once they bail you can assume control of it.

I think that's how it works. I was just able to acquire a couple of German tanks.

Just to add to this, you can attempt to repair the vehicle as well.

Oh yes, I was able to capture tanks after repairs! Sweet!
