Constant SHOCK attacks at Saipan

[Rainer]

If "Constant Shock Attacks" are initiated by the program, and you think the attacking forces are NOT overwhelming, then check this:

If Combat Engineering Units (enginers with Assault Value > 0) are present, then these units will NOT be reset by issuing the order to "Bombardement" or "Deliberate Attack". Pressing the "ALL" button will set all combat units accordingly, EXCEPT combat engineer units. Set these units manually to "Defensive Stence" and all be fine.
No unwanted shock attacks anymore (until you bring in those other 4 divisions. Then (what's the ratio? Don't know) the program will take over and initiate those shock attacks again.

Stumbled across this when I attacked Guam with four divisions and one combat engineers unit (the 34st). Knowing that the Japanese had one division plus assorted other units at the place I was surprised to see the "Constant Shock Attack" syndrom again.
After close examination I found what I desribed above.
Hope this will be of value to somebody (sure was for me and the well being of my combat guys out there at Guam).

Hi, strange I've never seen this. I have a 1.801 game going with mixed hexes and no unordered attacks are occuring.

I've seen this a dozens of times, but I've only seen one deliberate attack and no shock attacks. Most of the time, the attacks are bombardments (which still ticks me off no end). "Conserve your ammunition til it counts Soldier, or I'll shoot you myself!"

The Shock Attacks are confirmed by Mod Don Bowen (he says it's an intentioned feature).
The Shock Attacks with a Combat Engineers Unit present occurred recently but I don't think I have the save anymore.
It's not a show stopper at all, just something to be checked.
