#1: Random Attrition in the CC5 Campaign Author: shah, Posted: Mon Jan 05, 2009 11:24 pm — hey all, this'll be the first of a whole lot of posts I'll write this week.
My question: So a friend and i are in the middle of the Grand Campaign and i've noticed that some of my regiments (even those not in combat) are losing the odd unit here and there. Anyone else notice this? Is this normal and if so, how often does it happen?
For example, I pulled one regiment from the front line because it was down to a single Sturmgeshutz and Pak 40. A few days later, it makes contact with the enemy and suddenly I've lost both AT units.
Another example, one unit out of combat lost a french tank from its displayed force pool on the main map. It just disappeared from one day to the next.
Its pretty demoralizing since some of these units were critical ... i chalked it up to the game simulating air bombardment casualties
On the flip side, one of my airborne units early in the campaign got a 120mm mortar replaced.
None of these units disbanded or were out of supply btw ... any ideas?
Also, we're fairly consistent about reloading after every battle....
cheers and happy new year all.
PS as a side note my Ostruppen regiment got seriously mauled behind enemy lines early in the game. When it respawned it started with only 4 units in its forcepool (all of them visible on the strategic map). As the game progressed the forcepool fluctuated up to 9 units and is now down to 1 unit ... and it was never even in combat.... hmm ideas anyone?

Happy new year anyway!

Sometimes you are reinforced; sometimes the opposite.

The question is: is this deliberate, or just random weirdness!?
