Angles of Los Banos SPWAW 4.0 This may be another example of the Reduced Squads bug; As the Americans, I fought off several 23 to 28 man Jap B squads. At the end of the game, I returned to the turn 1 savegame and flipped Japan over to human control so I could review the Japanese setup & forces. There were no squads with more than 18 men! Where did these 28 man mobs come from? I say 28 men because as I killed them, the combat resolution window pops up and says something like "2 casualty, (25)". The (25) keeps counting up until (27) then I get the "SquadName Destroyed" as I get the last guy. Tommy

Easy worksaround: Start game (or first turn) with "reduced squads" on, but deactive it immidiatly (best even before saving at the beginning of the first turn) - looks like everything is fine than ... no zombies no more A.

Arralen, Just to be clear: I was wondering if this was caused by the Reduced Squads, or did I stumble across another bug. I now play with it off, but that game was started with it on. Tommy

Arralen,Just to be clear: I was wondering if this was caused by the Reduced Squads, or did I stumble across another bug. "reduced squad bug" again - hopefully I now play with it off, but that game was started with it on. Look to me that every time a game is started - no matter if anew or from a savegame - the "reduced squad" routine goes through the units and rolls for "missing men". Obviously it screws up when encountering "already reduced squads" which have lost men in combat and have the damage counter set to >0 for that reason. Haven't had the time to test this extensivly .. maybe I'm wrong about some details.. but shurely the programmers already look for this bug Arralen
