HarryInk Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 I'm PBEM fighting Wayne Rutledge's hoot of a CMBO scenario "Village Fracas". I got myself virtually a whole platoon of yankee GIs prisoner. I got an exit zone. Will it benefit me to try and get the captured troops off via the exit zone, or should I just leave 'em in a safe house in my rear? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joachim Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Move them off map. You won't get exit points for them. But their comrades can't free them. Gruß Joachim 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryInk Posted August 24, 2004 Author Share Posted August 24, 2004 But do I still keep the points for them if I remove them from the map (not via the exit zone)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 You will keep the points for exited POW's, no matter if it is exit mission or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Dementis Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 You can free your captured men? I only play CMAK and CMBB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slappy Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 You sure can. If you drive off the captors and get some friendlies nearby, they will revert to uncaptured. They should still be unarmed, but your opponent won't get the captured points or the casualty points. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwolf Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 You only get points for prisoners when you move them over the friendly map edge (or leave them on map and captured). The exit zone is usually not the friendly map edge, so moving them over there is like moving them over a neutral or enemy edge and gives no points. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryInk Posted September 6, 2004 Author Share Posted September 6, 2004 Well, here's another question... In an operation (without an exit zone), if you overrun your enemy and move off the 'front' of the map, will you just lose those troops or will they affect how/where the next battle is placed? I expect I'd just lose the troops, yes? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
