I came across this posting in the Patch 06-Public Beta posting number 1196
See here
[1108r5]
Fixed Missing troop level in non-base hex [MEM]
Fixed Use Manchuko hex ownership to determine garrision [MEM]
Fixed Reinforcement LCU details not showing when clicked on Reinforcement Schedule [MEM]
Fixed Reinforcement arrival shows on enemy report [MEM]
Fixed Rebuilt unit not finding devices [MEM]
Fixed Destroyed LCU could get stuck on reinforcement queue if from a ship [MEM]
Tweak Show Atoll or island size on mouse over of base [MEM]
Tweak Industry FOW [MEM]
Does this line relate to determining the Manchukuo Garrison value? If so read 1, if not please ignore.
1. Suppose now that it is pre 1945 and the Chinese have gone walkabout in the region and have captured some turf.
Suppose now on the counter-attack a goodly sum of localised troops are attempting to regain a lost hex and are currently in combat in said hex.
Why would these troops not be considered when determining the garrison?
2. Could this fix have any bearing on the current discussion?

Hi Michael......downloaded new patch and although the garrison numbers are up....they are still 1,500 behind what was there pre-patch....any thoughts? Thanks
Checked the new code and it was only looking a units in bases for the garrison numbers.
Updated the installer (1108r5e) to look at units in any hex within the defined area (as set out by manual).

If you install r5e, you probably will get back your numbers (or close to it).

I am reading 9453/8000 from the save now using r5e build.
The static border defence units were missing from the totals as they are mostly not in base hexes, but along the Soviet border.

Michaelm,
For a few days now I have been watching a red warning indicator on the Manchukuo Garrison numbers.
Initially I thought that I had made an error and actually moved too many troops out of the region and started shipping troops back as fast as I could.
Somehow the climb in the Garrison count did not appear to match the AV of the units shipped back.
Yesterday (6th January) I did a manual count of all LCU Attack Values in the Manchukuo region and summed 8643AV.
Today on the 7th the Soviets went active and on a recount I see that I have 8686AV in region.
Attached please find a zip file containing the the current and previous turns.
Game is running under the most recent beta patch. Further, it has been in progress and has undergone a number of beta patch updates without any obvious problem. I am thus flummoxed at the moment.
Please look into this matter at your earliest convenience as it is an active PBEM game.
Thanks in advance,
Bruce Knowles
When I look at your original pre-activation save, the MG now (5re) shows 9540/8000.
By the looks of it, a large portion of your LCUs are in a base on the left-hand side of Manchukuo which wasn't being counted (1604 AV) as it was not in the NW zone.

Hi Michael,
Yep, I agree with you.. that was my initial impression before your fix based on your remarks.
My original numbers excluded troops in Korea for one, and I could have missed a couple of stacks.
Thanks for your efforts on this...
