I observed the following problems while playing the 1944 campaign as Axis against the Soviet AI (normal difficulty) using the 1.05.23 Beta version: - There seems to be a severe problem with German support squad production and/or distribution. For example, my depleted air base units didn't gain any support squads so far (15 turns), the same is true for newly erected fort units. Also, my supply pool for German support squads turned negative around turn 10, and fresh support squad production seems to have stopped according to the production window. - Jet fighters (Me 262) do not appear in the "Pick Air Units" window in "Bomb unit" mode. - Closing the "Pick Air Units" window in "Bomb unit" mode only works by clicking into the upper part of the "X" square, clicks to the lower part are ignored. - Unlike earlier 109 variants in the game, the 109K-4 misses the 300 liter drop tank, resulting in extremely short range. To my knowledge the 109K-4 could also carry a drop tank. - The campaign starts with a (Soviet?) AA unit attached to Stolbtsy (64,59), which is controlled by the Axis side. This unit is only visible from the order of battle screen, not from the city screen. It is reported as a unit lost by the Soviets as soon as they capture the town. Further observations (not necessarily bugs): - I the post-turn losses screen I routinely see >40,000 manpower losses to my side, which is up to 4 times higher than the Soviet AI's losses, even when I'm dealing much higher casualties to the Soviets in land battles than I suffer. I assume these numbers correspond mainly to front line attrition, but why are my attrition losses so much higher than the Soviet ones? - If the Hungarian dive bomber units are switched to fighter bombers, manual "Bomb unit" missions with Hungarian air units cannot be conducted anymore (obviously because ground attack missions can only be initiated with bombers and fighter bombers do not count as bombers for this purpose). - There is no aircraft production/replacement for Finnish and Romanian level bomber units in this campaign (I assume this is historical/intentional).
