Is this a known issue?

The I russian corps with bagration as a leader just vanished from the map between the naval and land phase.

They do not show in the unit reports (view units)... Nor in the view counters either... It is like Russia never had a Ist corps .. sniff... just when I was invading denmark...

ahahah that is a good one.

When a corps is "embarked" on a fleet counter that resides in the same sea zone as other fleet counters and a depot is added to the area (on one of the fleet counters) then the depot symbol replaces the "loaded" icon and the corps "disapears" from all the "unit rosters" including leaders :)

Should not the depot go on the unused heavy fleet counter that is "unused" instead of the loaded fleet?

That would sound sensible. So if you destroy the depot do you get your corps back? I guess the answer is to debark the corps and build the depot afterwards? Or can the sea supply depot only be built in the naval phase?

To get the corps back just select the flee t with the depot and hit disembark. Just very bad UI.

The depot is created on the fleet you have active, it is and should be your choice.

I thought only unused fleet (i.e. a fleet not transporting a corps) could have a depot placed on them in the land phase?

Since depots are created in the land phase, and all land units have to disembark or will be lost, won't it make more sense to just disembark and THEN place your depots?

Seems to me that would avoid a lot of confusion.
