bug - air group replacement delay

Post by koniu »

As we all know Air group is able to take replacement every 7 days.
I found bug that is allowing to take replacements even every turn.

How?

1. go to air unit
2. Change replacement button to on
3. Divide unit
4. Rebuild unit
5. You will find out that replacement delay change down by 1, so if You divide/rebuild unit (with replacement on) enough number of times delay will go to 0 and You will be able to take replacements.

Tutorial how to replicate bug.
Everything was done in single turn.
I test it with few units. Bombers, fighters, reckon planes. Work every time.
Of course to take replacement Yo need to meet requirements. Supplies, AF size, HQ in range.

A war-winning strategy, no doubt. Has Albert Speer been smuggled to Japan?

At best, using that can be called gamey.

I will call that cheating. Of course it can be used by both sides but it will work better for Japan because with almost unlimited plane production any Japanese player will be unstoppable.

If I will be able to replace loses every single turn and not every 7 days with only few units (in my case Ki-84r Frank in 1944), i will be able to sweep allies to death. I would be able to replace loses i will suffer, allied opponent will have empty pools after few weeks.

I'm sure there are some players out there cursing you for figuring this out and making it known! [:D]

Definitely not in the spirit of the game and it's logistics model. Glad you're bringing it up.
