What's the correct way to open those mis files

When you open a project, the mis layers loaded are set by a list in a .pj file. So all layer loaded in MG campaign is set here - Monsun_Gruppe.pj
When you open the project (pj), all layers will load and have a tick beside their name to show this. Layers unticked are still listed in the .pj file but not loaded into ME2.
You can unload layers by unticking them. - TIP: right click to untick all layers other than the click ed one.
If you have more than one layer loaded into ME2 - the one that you are editing is the one that is highlighted blue.
Layers can be editied with any info - you can put ships in the air layer, but this would make it hard to manage.
Always be careful whick file is highlighted for editing when you work.
You can add new layers from the file manu - name it and add info.
When you save it - its name will be added to the .pj file as part of the project.
You can add a file from another campaign - by selecting add exsisting file and then pick. This will now also be added to the .pj list/project.

I am sure I had set a scale of 1.5, as in your example, but I will try again

There is also a zoom to view level - this will set at what zoom level will the shape be drawn on map.
You shouls also check the dates.
If you have to shape to appear in 1941 - make sure that ME2 is also in 1941 and not 1939
