Missing tanks

Post by PlankOwner1219 »

What happens when you have a unit surrounded, they have 385 tanks, combat occurs, the unit surrenders and lost 187 tanks. Where do the other 198 tanks go ? Also, is there a way to see what leaders you killed ? The "Leader Died" message pops up so fast that I sometimes miss it.

Per the Manual:
23.12.4. Effects of Surrender
When a unit surrenders (whether due to combat or in the logistics phase due to isolation) it is considered destroyed and removed from the map. Ground elements in the unit are affected as follows:
 Damaged ground elements are captured;
 Undamaged ground elements may be captured depending on their experience and the distance from their unit to an in supply friendly unit (If Rnd (120+range in Hexes to an in supply friendly unit) > experience of ground element, the ground element is captured);
 If the unit was isolated all the ground elements are captured.
If the ground element is not captured then the ground element’s AFV/Combat vehicles, devices and manpower are returned to the appropriate production pools.

you can view leaders that you killed only in the same turn in logistics report
shift + e or some icon on the top bar, but i use hotkeys
and leader checkbox has to be selected

In my opinion, this way you can only view your killed leaders, and not the enemy!
Sorry, i use an online translator :(
