Description
A user in the Discord who has encountered multiple issues brought up that if you try to reinforce while you have insufficient SP it will deploy as many forces as possible and fail to deploy the rest. To test his statement I went into my own game and tried to do the same. I gave myself [in the save below] 4 vehicles to create another lance with. Went into Stratcon and gave myself an SP and then tried to deploy the other lance as well as my Bravo Lance. One lance deploys [and Phoenix Support will show up as well as they are already attached] but the other lance fails to deploy. After doing that I was able to right click again and still deploy my OTHER lance that was available. But the test lance was not able to deploy.
I proposed to him that maybe he just had to do a proper SP deployment and then it would let him do a rolled deployment. He said it would not and so my tests continued. Sure enough it does not allow you to multi-deploy reinforcements even if you have the SP for the first set.
It could be possible that it is intended already to be able to do multiple reinforcement steps and that this is actually a bug, but as I am not certain I am posting this as an RFE. I believe the addition of being able to do multiple reinforcement deployments may allow people to properly use SP for some of their forces, but then risk rolls on the others.
If you follow the steps I listed above you SHOULD be able to replicate the results of my testing with any save.
