phil stanbridge Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Hmm curious. I saw this behaviour a couple of times in the beta and it was reported as fixed as far as I can recall. Maybe we need to revisit this.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool breeze Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Do the individual soldiers who ran off on their own ever fight on their own? Like run off towards the enemy, but see em and shoot? Like maybe they got consumed by battle rage lol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongLeftFlank Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I would love to see a "banzai charge" / berserkergang feature with Fanatic infantry, where once the unit hits "Panic" morale, they instead FAST move to the nearest enemy Location and engage in CQB. But put that one on the pipedream list. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDW Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I've actually seen this behaviour, too - but in reverse. I recall i was playing a CMBN QB, and a member of an AT crew took off for the rear of the map. Bear in mind, this was PRIOR to any enemy contact, so could not have been the "morale system". The crazy thing was that he took the AT gun icon with him! so, IIRC, when i issued orders to him, the whole crew woudl be impacted. it was bizarre, but I don't remember the outcome or if it self-corrected. However, I've seen this more than once. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WynnterGreen Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 In a game I was playing recently I had a platoon mounting a truck, 1 guy refused to board and ran at full speed AWOL away from the transport towards the enemy lines. He eventually got killed 950m away from his unit. Meanwhile, his mates and the truck refused to move, because not everyone was on board....... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be glad that the driver didn't follow him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnart Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I have had pinheads do this too, but rarely. Unfortunately I just had it happen in the CMBN campaign I am playing. I gave a short quick move to a scout team. One guy went where he was he was ordered to, and the other ran straight toward the enemy till he got killed. They were not broken, or in the red, but believe they were perhaps rattled. My only conclusion it is a path finding bug that happens now and then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uedel Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 ok, playing the Game today it happend to me also. What i seen and might cause to it was following. Soldiers from a HMG Unit moving to desired position, 2 soldiers try to find the best spot tight behind each other, when first soldiers stops as he found position, second soldier behind him moves further occupying the others soldiers place, now first soldier is moving again because his spot is now occupied by soldiers #2 soldier 2 is keeps also moving because the spot is not free as soldier 1 is still here. so u end up like a snake movement. Soldier 1 move stop gets bounced by soldier 2 and moves on rinse repeat........until they die or scenario ends..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
