I've had this problem since the original DW and it's really annoying. When I order my troop transports to load troops they never load wounded or new (younger than about 6 in-game months) troops. I couldn't find anyone else reporting this so am I the only one experiencing this problem?

no you are not the only one at all to be frustrated; troop management in general is in the distant pipe for love.

Took me six load orders to get 8 troops in one transport from my home world in my current game. 4 on the first order, one each on the next 3 and then another two orders to get the final one. None wounded, none unready. Took 3 months game time to load one transport and I microed it all the way...

lol I thought 4 was the full amount for my troop ships at first, I didn't even look at what they could carry.

Your broke your leg during ski-accident, your Boss call you via phone and order you to come to work.
Hey give the wounded Troops time to heal up. A good Commander would have spare troops close to cover these. You can pickup them later when they are healed.

They can heal in the troopships medical center. Besides Sluken terminators should just replace their wounded organs with "spare parts" from those human slaves they just conquered :D
