yacinator Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 They're worth twice as much points as inflicted casualties so you don't want to lose them. Walk them of the map as soon as possible. That way they can't be rescued by their comrades. Make sure to walk them of the friendly edge of the map. If you walk them of the sides or the enemy side of the map you'll loose all the points. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yacinator Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 If you know you're gonna loose and there isn't any time to move them off the map kill 'em all! :mad: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patboy Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 I think kill them is impossible, I've already tried. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painfbat Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Normally killing POW's is not a nice thing to do, but, as PAT is a no.1 Modder(like your work very much) I think we should make a new Patch: Killing POW's. Those dead POW's should be able to embark, so they can be transported out of sight. --------------- We were weating for them, but didn't have the weapons and training to stop them.

MikeyD Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Huh! I didnt know that you retained 'captured' points if the little guys were walked off the friendly edge of a map. Learn something new every day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junk2drive Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Any easy way to tell the friendly edge? It is not always Axis west and Allies east. I tried to walk my own troops off of a map once and they wouldn't go there. Can units walk off a neutral edge? If yes, who gets the points? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David I Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Find a nice safe spot on the map, move them there, and have your "Out of ammo" 50mm mortar team baby sit them. They can share cigaretts and make fun of each others languages. If you use Painfbat's technique, don't forget the lime. DavidI 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiggDogg Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Send enemies that you captured into hiding far to your rear. Cheers, Richard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingfish Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Originally posted by junk2drive: Any easy way to tell the friendly edge? This trick worked in CMBO: Give a unit a 'withdraw' command, and scroll the plot line 360 degrees around the unit. The plot line will turn red when it is pointed towards an enemy map edge (not sure about a neutral edge) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Bolt Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Originally posted by patboy: I think kill them is impossible, I've already tried. You didn't try hard enough. To kill them, order a friendly do an area fire nearby, then move the POWs into the LOF. I use abondoned crews or out of ammo guys to do the guarding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
