No more attack capture?
« on: November 30, 2004, 12:12:04 PM »
Was pretty bored this am so me and Lute did some land grabbin on OZKansas.  I made sure that one of the two captures I got was an Attack capture.  Let troops out, .ef, upped an Attack bf110, and poof got my Map Room Destroyed message.  After logging I went to check the scores page and all was fine and dandy.  There was one capture in each field (bomber, attack, and vehicle).  Now the attack capture has completely disappeared!  What happened to it?  Obviously the server knew of it this morning at 7am EST.

release troops, then go to tower before they enter the map room, and up an "attack" plane sortied as attack

you will get the system message as normal, but on the squads stats page the capture would show up under "attack" instead of bomber or GV.

it is a lame way to artifically inflate your squads stats. it does not help you individual stats, but the squads with "attack" captures have a higher overall attack ranking.

this has been around since as long as i have been playing, and has to be one of the gameyest stat thing i have ever seen.
I don't know what to put here yet.

Does it not show on your personal stats after rank is calculated or something?  Btw, I completely agree 73... but never done one before and decided to give it a try.
