theoretically is it possibly to start a battle with about 200 troops total (id only command a squad)

plus about 20 helicopters


also where are the boats located, or is it an addon

If u got 2 men in each squad I wouldnÂ't recommend it but if u got about 10-12 in every squad I donÂ't think it will cause any serious lag. But the choppers will cause SERIOUS lag.

The boats are under the armored section.

theoritcaly yes, you can, but practically, it's too many, especially with the choppers. you've also gotta think if it's just u playin this mission or will other people play it, coz it would only work on very few computers

200 troops isn't a huge deal if that's all you have, but 20 choppers will lag like crazy.    Read this tutorial for some tips on reducing lag.
Plenty of reviewed ArmA missions for you to play

hmm...i decided that maybe i should try making a small campaign based on the entire NATO invasion of one island;
for example, instead of having a mission where AH1's first go on a bombing run and then the troops invade, i'll do them as separate missions

PS if anyone can help me with scripting on like AIM let me know
