Pyewacket Posted June 24, 2003 Share Posted June 24, 2003 Ever seen this? In a PBEM (night game, LOS 75m) the Russians captured one of my squads. Some Russian infantry units didn't care about this and shot at the squad (maybe because of the darkness) . The squad took some casulties and the rest (3men or so) started to run like hell. Amazingly this squad stoped being captured!!! but is now "unarmed". Is this something for the rarity top ten? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow 1st Hussars Posted June 24, 2003 Share Posted June 24, 2003 Strange things happen at night. I once had a squad alone watching for enemy troops, it suddenly dissapeared..... I found out later it was captured without ever seeing a thing... :eek: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Axe_ Posted June 24, 2003 Share Posted June 24, 2003 I just had a green squad break because of an infantry sound contact at night in fog. :mad: Boo! A PBEM opponent of mine — Dave H — had a similar tale of strangeness and spooky goings on. IIRC his veteran troops couldn't identify an eliminated Finnish squad, even when standing on top of them. :eek: Leave it to the Finns to come up with the concept of the Uberdead.

Zimorodok Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 "Unarmed" is the state for re-captured troops. I get that one all the time. If the AI captures any troops of mine, I do my best to recapture them, if at all possible. Sometimes, though, the AI will walk them off the back end of the map, and then they are gone for good.

Thin Red Line Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 Originally posted by Pyewacket: Amazingly this squad stoped being captured!!! but is now "unarmed". I've recently witnessed an incredible temptative to escape from a german Luftwaffe POW squad. They were guarded by a russian SMG squad but they suddenly started to run towards their lines (distant from 1,5km ). The guards simply shoot them in the back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demoss Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 I just had a green squad break because of an infantry sound contact at night in fog. :mad: Boo! Are you sure that sound contact wasn't firing (or perhaps tossing grenades) at them? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
