modding DS to 1965 lack of CAS missions

[slick cowboy 142]

I've been playing around with the DS mod. I changed the campaign into a 1965 what if thing, even changed the objects in the targets.ini, etc. All good, but is it normal that there's little or no resistance on the Iraqi side when coalition forces start invading?

I've had only one CAS mission and I'm about 20 missions in (i moved up the offensive date though and changed the dates for the ground forces in the data.ini as well). Everything is there, but practically no CAS missions. The coalition just keeps moving up the front line.

Was this intended? I compared everything with the original DS campaign data.ini file, but I don't see anything different...

 

I attached the Campaign data.ini. I only changed the start dates and obviously the units...

 

Somehow the ground units don't clash...

I guess this went unnoticed or maybe my question wasn't clear (or stupid...).

I copied everything from the original DS campaign, replaced the units, and changed to dates 1965. So it's pretty much the same, except for the start dates.

But I only get two CAS missions in the entire campaign (and that's including AI). Is the game maybe only generating CAS missions when there's enemy resistance? Is it normal to have so few CAS missions?
