Wow guys. A couple days ago I was playing a battle in CC2. I had took a German prisoner with a 3 US man team. As you know in cc2 prisoners follow your squad. On assaulting another group I lost those 3 guys and to my amazement the prisoner went OFF of surrender mode and took off. As soon as those 3 men died, the prisoner came under fire from my .30cal team watching the area and could no longer be seen by me, I am regretful to say that I did not check the after battle report to see what happened to him and wished I had a recording, but just want to let you guys know that that happened.

As far as reclaiming surrendered prisoners I am not sure, but do know that certainly he was no longer a white prisoner status after it happened.

Yep, you should check the CC2 FAQ, a lot of interesting stuff that is not in the manual, like that bit of info.

My unit is chasing the prisoners all around the map
and I can hear the sound of fisticuffs
all the time. What's going on?
This seems to occur because of a slight fault in th
e way the game treats prisoners. Once a soldier
surrenders, he follows the unit he surrender to aro
und the map (or transfers to a lower ranked unit
as detailed above). However, he can be released if
the capturing unit is killed or if it itself
surrenders. When this happens the prisoner makes hi
s way to the corresponding side of the map
(left for Germans, right for Allies) and exits. Dur
ing this period when he is making his way off the
map, the prisoner won't attack any enemy units, but
is still a legitimate target (in the same way
that artillery or vehicle crew are when they abando
n their gun/vehicle). What can happen is that
the fleeing soldier stumbles across another enemy u
nit who then attempts to recapture him.
