Talk:Empire Escalation (mission)

Starting Money

Why is the starting money listed as being at $1300? Every single time I've played this mission in Mann Up, I've only ever gotten $800 to start with. Was it recently updated? TheKholdOne (talk) 19:02, 3 December 2013 (PST)

Fixed. What happens when you copy and paste the same templates. Ashes (talk) 19:49, 3 December 2013 (PST)
