Bug?

I finally loaded the game on my business lap top as it kept crashing on my desktop computer.

I have been able to complete the tutorials and a couple of scenarios. What I've notoced when playing the Germans is that the American paratroopers start out with British motorized units or British glider units.
This is when playing historical scenarios with standard reinforcements.
Has anyone else noticed this?

I have really enjoyed the game.

I suspect what you are seeing is the effect of fog-of-war! Start taking prisoners or examining the bodies and all will become clear. [;)]

It's a feature [:)], see page 92 of the manual: assessment and intel levels.

Ok thanks guys. I understand Fog of War. I didn't consider that it might be showing me formations that are not really there. I figured it was masking unit type, organization and strength. Didn't imagine it might be trying to trick me into believing that the 82nd airborne paradroppeed a Brit motorized infantry company on the initial landings.[:)]

Thanks for the quick response. I love the game and love this forum.
