First Scenario...Don't know what to call it.

I have a Russian Skirmisher isolated in the swamp. Meleed them.

Next turn. A Division general, who was next to unit but didn't participate in the melee, is captured by what is now an isolated Routed Unit.

NO NO NO NO NO....

This CANNOT BE. This Does not happen.

There are problems with this game.

Everyone knows, if the Russians run in your direction you should better get your ass out of the way. :frenchlol1:

Seriously, one can imagine that they first stole everything from him and then they stole him :frenchshock: .
And despite them running away I doubt they would have run around him like a herd of cattle's running around a tree and ignored him.
Game wise a bad way this was solved but it's also bad to leave officers alone so close to combat.

But he was with a formed unit advancing towards the battle- He didn't engage in combat, and I have no idea how a disordered unit of skirmishers over a mile from their lines captured a divisional general.

I've never seen anything like it.

OK, but he was alone in that hex?
Maybe they caught him with his pants down, literally. :frenchoops:

No. he was stacked with a 700 man battalion.

and he must have had his pants down :frenchoops: , but there is no way they could have possibly captured him and gotten him to Russian lines.

This is a glitch.

Yes, and if you are able you should provide the support with some save files so they can take a look at it.
