Towed guns behavior

Hi,
My friend who I just introduced to the game says that the towed gun behavior is wrong.

Example: If you suppress fire at the gun and make the crew run away the gun disappears from the map.

Later the gun will reappear in the same hex later in the game behind enemy lines.

The correct behavior should be that if the crew abandons the gun the gun should remain to be destroyed in a later turn. (not disappear)

The behavior is correct that if the gun is destroyed the crew is destroyed along with the gun.

This is of course against the AI. I do not know if it is this way against a human.

Thx.

This doesn't happen in Battle Academy so maybe you are talking about another game? Once the crew has routed the unit is destroyed and cannot recover. There is no way to capture equipment in a mission other than specific game events which are part of the mission design.

Hi,

This did happen in BA Mac version. That is why I posted this for my friend who discovered it.

I have not seen this. I will discuss this with my friend some more.

Thanks for the response.

It must have been a different unit. PC and Mac use the same exact scripts so what happens on one will happen on the other. I think he just misunderstood but find out more if you can.

Yes - if he can give us the map and location we can take a look and try and see if there is anything that could explain his report.

Cheers
