Strait of Messina hex flipping side

Post by Duedman »

Hello again :)

in my current match vs OCB in the 1943 scenario he took Sicily and Southern Italy.
As can be seen in my video linked below at 7:53 bottom right corner, his British corps is cut off because the Strait of Messina flipped back to Axis control.
I think this is a bug. I had no unit there neither land or sea.

After the Allies took Sicily and southern Italy, did any Axis unit pass through the Strait of Messina hex by chance?

No I always controlled it. This is odd.

Hmmm. It is rather odd. But I suppose your British unit can enter the Strait of Messina hex, despite it “flipping over” to Italian control?

As an afterthought, maybe it’s some sort of sneaky (pro-Axis) partisan activity? :mrgreen:

Actually Italy surrendered. This oddity about control of that Land/Sea hex just popped up right after Germany 'took control' of Italy. The Allies have controlled it for several turns..but I moved a unit that was on the Strait hex back to Palermo.
I could certainly of moved a unit to clear it. I just noticed it in my vid too. I'll have to see the next one to see how I dealt with it...I forgot about this as there was a lot going on. 🙂
