I am playing the 1941 campaign as Axis against the AI, just to get a feel of the new game mechanics. After a couple of turns, I tried to transfer an air group (I./KG 2) closer to the front. As target I chose a level 2 airbase, could be Lepel, but not sure. As it happens, the game complained about the lack of fuel and ammo at the target airfield, so I left the "Planned Transfer" pending. Thought, may be next turn after logistic the transfer will be completed. So it happened indeed. But, surprise surprise, I found I./KG 2 not in Lepel or any other Axis controlled airfield, but in NW Leningrad, sure enough with zero planes. Sending the defected group to reserve worked even across front lines. First I thought it's just another intentional feature, after all there HAVE been desertions throughout the war. May be single planes, but a whole group? In the event log I read nothing about desertion, but just: "I./KG 2 air group transfers to NW Leningrad Air Base" I'm pretty sure I didn't order THAT transfer, and even if I did by accident (I'm still learning the ropes), the game shouldn't let me.
