NDISLES
« on: August 27, 2019, 07:46:06 AM »
Resupplying AAA factory from A5 in a C-47, dropped the supply chute, bailed, and was "captured" and got no resupply message.

edit:  Logged off and back on, and tried again.  This time I flew around until the supply chute landed and DID get a resupply.  Then bailed, and was "captured".

You get a 'captured' when the base closest to your position is hostile. Task Groups count as bases, too. Factories do not.
So when the enemy has captured a base next to the factory (or has a CV very close), you will get captured.

Didn't realize that strat factories aren't friendly territory.  No more beer in their supply drops!
