DJAndrews -> Captured Base, Ships Returned to Enemy (3/1/2004 5:46:02 PM)
|
I just ran into a problem, which while of limited importance here, might be of greater concern if it is carried forward in the code for WITP. Playing as the Allies I just captured Rabaul. The base had 218 aircraft and 7 badly damaged Japanese ships present at the time of capture. The planes showed up as being destroyed on the ground but the ships just disappeared. I'm not sure whether points were awarded when the base fell, but no ships were shown on the intelligence screen as being sunk, so I expect not. Switching to H-to-H mode, I found that all 7 ships had been returned to Japan. They had been repaired and were listed as available. Since they were all DDs, APDs and MSWs and its relatively unimportant gamewise. However, had it happened elsewhere and it was a crippled BB or CV that was captured, it would be quite aggravating. It occurs to me that this could be a bigger problem in WITP if a similar thing happens with Allied ships captured in the initial Japanese sweep of the SRA.
