Perhaps some kind of a Japanese "Philadelphia Experiment"...........

Such bugs are very annoying........[:@]

No point on the map is safe in the Ikemod!  [:D]

Ah - is this a MOD? If so looking at the editor files might be worth while. Like any chance there are duplicate units in there??

No, this is not a MOD. normal 2by3 scenario 17, I´m not sure what was meant by that either.

Ike99 (Japan)-vs-Borner (Allies)
(Game Three)

Scenario 17-100%
All normal settings plus Japanese
submarine doctrine is on.

Houserule- No Nighttime Carrier Operations. Besides this it´s anything goes.

We have all the saves if you want to look and see what´s going on with the program here.

I think he he saw my joke about it being an Ikemod and forgot that UV can't be changed like WITP.  [8D]

 
Maybe this is the famous programmers bug, put in on purpose by the origianal programmer to prove his power and knowledge to us mere mortals.

I am just glad this is a finished product and not in need of another patch.. that oh by the way could adjust the F4U issue....... oops.... I am ranting again... sorry.....  [:-]

 Death to game bugs!!!!!   swat them!!        
      FIRE PHASERS!!!
 
guess that is all the sci-fi smilies I could work in.....   
 

Replay the turn and give the 65 brigade a move order into the jungle.

I remember witnessing something like this a long time ago, only it was in reverse, with an Australian brigade being teleported to Rabaul.

The brigade was part of a full division unloaded at Lae to assault the city. While the rest of the division got on with the attack, the brigade teleported to Rabaul, but still under the 'launch deliberate attack' orders. Needless to say it suffered horrendous casualties against the well fortified Japanese. Whats even weirder is after the one disastrous attack the brigade teleported back to Lae, but still registering the losses incurred from its battle near Rabaul.

We ended up going back about 2 weeks in the game... sadly, IKE's big ML only took one torp hit this time.

Sounds like the "black hole of Rabaul" with an auto transport to a new location.

glad that you dont surrender to this nasty bug and continue this intresting game, gentlemen.

Bagged a couple more AP's in the last few turns.... the death of a thousand paper cuts goes on. Sadly no new hits on ML's or MSW's recently.

Hit another of IKE's Minelayers......    Okinshima, having only taken one torp after our jump back, I am sure lived, but this makes 4 of his ML's that have been takes hits. Sunk or not, that's all the fewer mines when I come forward.

not even any targets for my subs. Ike must have been frightened off! [:D]

Borner tells me he formed a fast transport group at Luganville and it now has 6,000 Japanese troops on it.

So Allied fast transport fleets are now carrying Japanese soldiers around.
