Extra ships in transport TF

I set up a Transport TF and when I tried to add a 26th ship I got a message saying 25 was the limit - no problems

I then go to load the TF and suddenly 5 new transport ships have attached themselves to my TF making a TF of thirty ships.

Is this a bug or did I screw up[&:]

I Have noticed it too. I have worked around it and when I checked the TF the next turn, the ships had been returned to port.

I read in some previous forum stuff that if the computer thinks your task force is not big enough to carry all the cargo then it assigns more transport to it.

Guess the computer is some insubordinate Lt. who thinks he knows best having just graduated out of naval college[:)]

Good thing about WitP - it tells you what different costs are for different type of transport - I think, I hope[:(]
