Status: offline 		Iīve been playing the japanese campaing with the new WaW v. 4.2 and iīve observed a rare omission. Two units the 75mm Type 88 (heavy flak) and the Type 95 Scout (scout vehicle) donīt appear in any where. Both of them are displayed in the enciclopedy but itīs impossible purchase in some formation or upgrade units screen. What class of extrange error is this? Has anybody observed this too? The most extrange is that in v. 4 and in "games" saved of that version i have 75mm flaks in my army. Is it a simple oversight or is there any "historical" reason? Would i must modify the OOB for correct it? Please comprove it and say to me if you had observed the same. Thx

I have the same problem, but with Maus. And there are some strange costs of some units. Russian pioneers and engineers have the same cost, but pioneers have +10exp.? And the same thing with some tanks. Or am I missing something?

Status: offline 		Hello A number of new unit types was introduced in 4.1. This has caused situations where some new types have no formations. For example that Maus is now classed 'Super heavy tank' so it will not appear in any other kind of formations. When you find cases where some unit is unavailable please compile a list and post it at the 4.1 oob bug thread, thus it might eventually be fixed Abramsgunner, when I start a random battle in sept. 39 those Pz-IIIe's are available. It may be possible that the upgrade code now does not allow change from armoured car to med tank. Did you have any other tanks, and if you did were you able to change them to Pz-III's? blackbird, the +10 units are elite units. Other countries also have them, there is also second line -10 troops. As the pricing in oob's are based (roughly) based on firepower and not experience you see them priced same. Also, did you have true troop cost option on or off?

Status: offline 		What happened was I changed some of those unit classes and made up formations for them but in the final production process managed to overwrite the formation templates, so the formations vanished... We will see about a "quick fix" to get the units back available ASAP.

But in some cases the same unit with more exp costs more, and some units have same price as them with more exp. Get it? :-)) All options but CC are on.
