Error: I added flag to city hex without flag

[Octopussy]

Hi.

Yesterday I played Buzinovka Depot in GC42. My He177A neutralized city hex of Stalingrad and added white flag to this city hex. Then my ground unit captured the flag.

Thanks - is this repeatable?

[Octopussy]

Yes. It can be done on any city hex without flag occupied with enemy unit.

I tried it in Buzinovka Depot again.

And in Streets of Moscow.

And you get prestige for capturing minor flag.

Yup, we're aware of this:

It might be something to address when we get around to a new patch (along with other issues, such as the S key crash), but in the meantime:

"Hmm that is some strange behavior indeed. It's not particularly harmful, but it's certainly not intended. City hexes with no flags may see a change because of this, but perhaps not. Trying to milk prestige out of this would undoubtedly be more trouble than it's worth (needing so many level bombers+requirement for enemy unit to be present+time constraints+weather restraints)."
