extra crews

[Wdll]

I am not sure if I am missing something, if this is a glitch or whatever. I noticed that even after repairing all my units in a PBEM campaign, I have some crews attached to formations (some of them with experience too). If I try to delete them then I risk disbanding the whole platoon. Have I done something wrong or what?

Only thing I can think of is the obvious. Surviving crews from "core" tanks or other "crewed" weapon system that "bailed out" during battle? Did you bail out any crews during the previus battle?

And on the lighter side... I thought the thread's title was "extra Screws" must change glasses ......

1- what version of the game are you playing ?

2- A save game that shows us an example of this would be , as we say over and over and over....., a very nice thing to have.

I think this is the file I received when I was to make repairs.

My side is Greece.
We have now started our next battle.
Also, the other player said to me that he too had them.

Version 4.5

Tis me I have 3 rogue crews, 2 tank & 1 APC turn provided if needed they appeared or I noticed them right towards the end of the last battle. Not visible on map but using N key selected making me aware of.
This may be my fault after having seen a post used the W key to assign some APCs to diffrent formations. This may have caused the problem as never had it or used W before did not however reasign tanks. I do not have any old saves my system hard deletes them though may be able to retrieve from emails as think its a soft delete.

I never used the W key or did anything out of default purchases/formations.
As for my extra crew, they appear underneath various platoons. Mechinf, Tanks, ATGMs (vehicle), artillery. And they did appear in the deployment phase IIRC.

There does seem to be a problem here. I pressed "repair all" and had points left over, and the crews are appearing for some formations.

(It may have something to do with the 190 odds units, with 71 platoons, many of them single unit platoons, and no company level HQs at all .. )

Did you sell any core formations at any point?

Hmm, I might have deleted a formation at the very first purchase of units of this campaign, but not after that.

I would also like your save game at the turn just before game end - as some of these formations with added crews, just don't seem to have had anyone destroyed in the battle.

I had a few crews from the previous battle too.

Anyway, I think this is the file, let me know if it isn't.
