To the right of the Stages section is the Missions section. It is from here that you will
populate each stage with missions. To do so, first select the Stage you wish to populate
and then press the Add button in the Missions section. Upon doing so you will be
presented a folder/file selection dialog window to select the mission you want. Once
you select it, press the OK button on the file browser. The mission will now be listed as
part of the selected stage, and its mission name and value range will be displayed. Each
mission can be assigned a value range which will determine mission selection within a
phase.
When creating a mission, you may assign values to triggered events such as the
destruction of a unit, a unit reaching a defined area, a time value, etc. At the end of a
mission, these values are totaled and used to determine what the next stage will be and
which mission from within that stage will be chosen.
If mission total values are 49 or lower, the player will fall back one stage. If the value is
50, they stay in the same stage. If the mission total value is 51 or above, the player will
advance to the next stage. By populating a stage with multiple missions, each with
different values, you can create a campaign that flows back and forth according to
mission results.
If two missions are assigned the same value range in a stage, the mission will be
randomly selected.
