The Bug: Surrendering units, surrendered in HW and show as surrendered in battle details, but never leave thier container and reappear in the very next battle, even if it is in the same turn, so they are never leaving the roster. This is not a duplicate unit bug. IE: I fight a division with 5 brigades and two of them surrender. I fight this same container, in the same turn, and encounter the same units which previously surrendered.

How is the progress on the patch?

I mentioned in a previous thread that I had captured the Wanderin' brigade, the Chicago BOT and the Eagle brigade in each of two consecutive HW battles, and captured the Eagle brigade a third consecutive time in the next battle.  I wonder if three times in a row is a record.  I don't pay attention to unit designation unless the captured brigade is an LU.
    If an LU is captured or destroyed and then recreated, does it lose the special abilities that the original soldiers possessed (since the original soldiers that had those abilities and the people that trained them are no longer around)?

No, I don't think it does, but didn't thoroughly check, and just noticed that LU's were reappearing. Maybe one of these other fellows has more info.

Status: offline 		I have only seen AI units surrender and reappear, not any of my own.

In 8 games on the beta, I have had only 8 or so of my units surrender, so my experience is not a good sample.

One the other hand, the AI has surrendered 30-40 units, with about 20 reappearing.
