I have never seen this mentioned before and it doesn't cause the game to crash or anything , but it is weird ...
Playing Solitare in Campaign Mode ..Generated Campaign ..I have seen this randomly doesn't seen to matter what version It happen with 4.x ( I didn't play solitare with 4.5 or higher until now ) with 7.0 ands i have seen this with SP3 as well ..
Ok, what happens is , Usually I get about 20% of the value of my core force at the end of a game within the campaign to repair damaged units and upgrade units .. but Occasionaly usually about the third game in a Campaign I get an emormus amount of points , looks like maybe 200% of the value of my orignal purchase points (ie if I started the campaign with 5400 points it get 11000 points to repair and upgrade)
.. This is also accompanyed by the game being played having somewhat larger than normal opposition forces and an inflated VP total at the end .. this last time it happened it was a meeting engagement type advance game. visiablity 25 9:00 am light rain .. I had approximately a Bn of Mech Infantry some extra 60mm mortars and some extra 81mm mortars a Company of M18 TD's and a armored recon platoon .. my Aux buy was a BM each of 155 Guns and a BN of 105mm Hows , the opposition was a mixed Bn of SS and Airborne Inf in Halftracks, 2 PanzerGreinder companys, a PZIII Company, a Full Stug F8 Battery ,a Full Stug H42 Battery, 2 platoons of PZIV, a platoon ot Tigers , and a Platoon of King Tigers backed up by about a dozen 10/4's and 8 251/2's also they had maybe a platoon of 222's and Maybe a BN off board of 75mm hows .. it had to be about 3 times my point value ... the Vhexes were 20 points end of game in the middle and 100 points end of game in the back field , the reported score was something like 62,000 to 5000 for a DV .. but my losses were under a 500 points when I hit the fix all button on the repair screen ( so doubling that I lost maybe 900 points killed and damaged ) , and I figure I did maybe 8000-9000 points damage on the Opposition ... I got something like 11,000 repair points like I said ...
Anyway has anybody else seem this kinda thing ???
I have since repaired and started another game so i don't have the Vscreen ..I know, I should saved it, but i didn't ...

yep, same thing happen to me in my campaign with Polish. I have a real small force ( 1 inf platoon, 2 tk, 1 40mm battery and 3 eng squad + sniper and MG/Mortar ). Buyed 200pts of support troups;
Final score more than 10000 vs ....
I got 3000 point to repair for this battle... neither to say that this far more than what I need for the full war
So it just ruined my game
It can be somewhat related to the battle dfficulty cause it is the first time I used it to adjust ennemy force, and the first time this bug show up.

The campaigns have been fairly shot for a long time, as one symptom, the limited ammo for instance, doesn't last beyond the first battle. I've also thought that whatever the ratio of repair points were, are far too much (talking WWII campaign here), and I'm guessing here but I would figure the ratio was closer to 33% of your forces.
