Airborne Assault

Thanks for the answers larrysellars.
I've restarted the scenario from which the above screenshot was taken. This time I ordered 1 bataillon to defend the western exit of Arnhem to prevent any enemy reinforcements coming in from Arnhem to support the forces at the railway bridge which was to be attacked by almost the whole rest of the regiment.
All in all it went quite well this time although my time schedule was not met and the scenario ended anyway after 24hrs because its only a demo.

It's hard to tell how long a unit of a certain size takes to travel a certain distance (of course there are external factors like amount of enemy resistance).
Does the command delay kick in every full hour (for example 1400, 1500, 1600,...) or is it dependant from the start time of the scenario (if the scenario starts at 1307 for example, are orders executed at 1407, 1507 and so on)?

There a quite a bunch of decently priced copies of Red Devils over Arnhem available in Germany at amazon or ebay but as Highway to the Reich covers the whole operation and hase improved functions I prefer having it over "Red Devils" of course.
