loaning corps(with leaders)

[bresh]

Hi there !

Whats the reason you cant lend a corps with a leader attached ? Not mentioned in manual.
Or is it a bug ?
It really strains a nation like Russia, who needs a long supply line now, that allies cant pay supply.
And without combined movement you can only lend corps. But without leaders...
Unless combined movement gets implemented, one should be able to lend corps with leaders attached.

yes, it's a pity. I am Russia in 2 PBEM games and I'm having a lot of problems:

1. I have to remove leaders from corps before loaning them
2. I get no PP for battles won with loaned corps

Well I notiched there is a way to do lend leaders, but not sure if its intended, since it involves some tricky moves to actually use the leader involved when attacking, while defending its just happens natural.
 
Im guessing its the code for battles that might prevent the option of lending corps with leaders. So if they can fix that, I dont see why corps with leaders shouldnt be able to be lend.

We're going to work on that as well. It's been brought to my attention that the loaned corp function is really not a good replacement of combined movement unless ALL (leaders) units could be loaned. I don't know if we'll get this into 1.02 but we will get this added eventually.
