Troops

[Pannono]

I dont remember who asked, but if 9 troops from country A get in the map room at country B's field, and 1 troop from Country C gets in the map room after that, Country C gets the field.

really?!

I've had this happen before. Was in a M3 taking a field, saw enemy troops running, shot one of them, snuck in, dropped one, got the base.

yes, i just did a test offline
spawned Sdk in Vh as bish and gave knights field, and destroyed ack guns via destroy objects
dropped 9 troops waited til they entered map room
switched rook and spawned jeep and dropped 1 troop at same field and rook capture

That was my question in a "reset the map room" thread in Help/Training.

I always knew the 10th troop took the base, but I was curious if it mattered which country, or just a bad guy country.

Interesting...

I believe the game is written that X amount of enemy troops have to go into the map room for a cap, no matter what country.

Also, as the results of another test show, there is no "maximum" speed for troops to be deployed
I used an airstart and dropped troops at 350 MPH with a C47 and had them appear and deploy their chutes

Oh dear. now that that's out of the bag there is going to be some interesting capture races at certain bases now
