It's the 8MP PBEM game going on in the AAR forum.

You're pushing the game to its limits, and it goes crazy with the amount of battle reports. I will have to add some recycling of battle reports, so that only one recon per hex will be registered at most. That's why later it adds planes from multiple battles to one battle report. Sadly the design of the game is not flexible enough to handle such numbers (just like with reaching 32k aircraft, at least here it doesn't crash, but you're risking this all the time).

Negative CV will have the same source, this is probably value overriden by some other battle where it stored some helper data.

Well if you can convince Telemecus to stop attacking, that should solve the problem. He won't listen to me. Go figure.

I think the weather can be very convincing!

Well, maybe at least you could limit recon spamming. They are major source of battle data saturation.

It could be done in the game maybe? For example, provide an interception bonus for Recon flying to a hex (area?) > 3 or something like that .. when the recon planes are shot down .. I would bet the negative reinforcement loop will stop the behavior. :)
