Minty Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Playing Allies vs AI Axis. A U Boat made surprise contact with HMS Courageous during the AI's turn. It was clearly surprised as it proceeded to automaticaly launch an air strike on Amazon destroyers in the other direction! It took 3 points off the destroyers and the sub was left alone. I know SC2 WaW is historically accurate but reinacting Swordfish torpedo bombers attacking Royal Navy ships by mistake is pretty impressive.

Hubert Cater Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Minty, sounds like an odd error and not something I've ever seen before. Are you sure it is not the case that there was surprise contact and the sub then attacked the destroyer taking no damage in return? This is possible if the surprise contact does not favour the hidden unit, i.e. the Carrier. In this case the player or the AI in your case, is free to attack any unit it chooses after the surprised contact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minty Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share Posted November 2, 2007 Nope, the Destroyer wasn't next to the sub and it was the carrier that hit it.It made me laugh out loud! I think I've got the saved turn after if that helps. Anyway not a big deal as seems like a one in a million. Funny though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Unfortunately I would need the turn before it happened but I'll keep an eye out for it in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
