Citizen Emperor -> Problem with Bicycles (7/9/2016 2:19:58 PM)

Dumb question time!

Bicycles
In a Dynamic Campaign game (EF), I'm playing the Finns, fielding a Jäger battalion -- infantry equipped with bicycles.

A Jäger company enters the map as reinforcements: four infantry platoons and four bicycle units, each with a strength value of 6. No action points have been expended.

So far I have not found any way to load the infantry on the bicycles...When I attempt to do so, I get the message: "Cannot Load on Non-Carry Unit".

And yet when I check the stats on a bicycle unit (F2 key), it has "Carry Rider" ability.

What gives? What am I doing wrong?

Would you mind sending me the campaign files, I will look into it?

EDIT-Actually the problem lies with the carry field, it has 16, which is carry rider, however it should have 16384 for carry bicycle!

The stock Finnish OOB has some issues, I fixed most of them but chose to create a new set of units as I tweaked with combat values as well. As I recall the original bicycles did not work at all (due to a wrong flag similar to what Mike noted above, they were rail cars in effect instead).

Some other issues were details such as Jaegers (jääkärit, since you seem to be able to master the scandinavian "ä" [;)] )being portrayed as SMG platoons, which is not correct.

Having said that, so many original details were spot on, including the very ad-hoc form of Artillery units with the hodge-podge of makes and calibers due to military aid received during Winter War.

Thanks, y'all.
