German Super-Garrisons... The Saga Continues.

An update on my bizarre German Garrison situation:

The highly mobile German Garrisons are now displaying Christ-like abilities... including walking on water. Here is a water-walking Garrison taking a stroll on the North Sea... hotly pursued by a Dutch Onderzeeboote Vloot. (shades of Swedish Chef!):

So I thought to myself... "Hmmmm... if these guys think that they are ships... I wonder what they'll do if I torpedo them?"... So I sent out some Stukas on "Naval Strike":

... and sure enough, it's actually working! And I really am Naval Striking the Garrisons. Check it out:

Any questions? :wacko:

EDIT: I've been bombing "Jesus" for a week, and haven't yet done a single point of damage... he really does have Christ-like abilities!

Next natural thing to do - send in the Richelieu!

 

[Fernando Torres]

I had the same bug a month ago.

Blue Emu and Fernando Torres, did any of you use fullcontroll at some point. Once many moons ago i used fullcontroll to check something in a test, whereafter i had one of my naval taskforces strolling around the ethiopean Dessert. Apparently the fullcontrol command can cause errors like these, i was even able to merge a land corps with a naval taskforce. It chrashed shortly thereafter though.

 

[Fernando Torres]

As i can remember, no.

 

[th3freakie]

fullcontrol? Is that the HoI2 equivalent of Eu2's Richelieu? *ashamed he doesn't know cheats besides the resource ones* o

 

[labalag]

It is.

Allthough fullcontroll won't work as well as richelieu did in EU2.

It seems the unit is dug in... into uhm... something.

 

[th3freakie]

It is.

Cheers!

Either the famed dutch reefs, or water trenches. Secret tech, doubtfull Germany has it so soon in the game.

Try shore bombardment with the French Navy or just attack him with the French Navy though it sounds like a trawler might serve you better.

I am supecting a thread "i have heared people only argue for CA, BC and BB, but i think that GAR are really the best capital... ehm.... ship, what do you think" to pop up soon.

Absurd - they are clearly an escort to prevent naval strikes.

and they keep the mermaid partisans down as well!

Sure Namor is commanding that garrisons ...

 

[Gormadoc]

No no, you all got it wrong, its the long forgotten German Wünderwaffen, Sirens disguised as garison troops to lure unsuspecting allied taskforces closer, so they can put a spell on the sailors and make them all sail straight to Wilhelmshaven.

If you look at the screenshot closer you will notice the MP designation. That is actually the supersecret Sea armoursuit otherwise known as "Meehr Panzerrüstung".

 

[Van der Gent]

Damn, WTF !! 6 divisions ? You might have made your own modification of WiF.

Yes I have.

 

[unmerged(61810)]

I have used fullcontrol to control the Spanish forces a few times during the SCW, and once merged a few divisions with a bomber group. The game crashed a few seconds later.

But I imagine what would happen if I tried to intercept some bombers with my armored divisions?

 

[blue emu]

Blue Emu and Fernando Torres, did any of you use fullcontroll at some point?

No. No cheat codes used at all in this game... not even "nofog" or "showid".

I am supecting a thread "i have heared people only argue for CA, BC and BB, but i think that GAR are really the best capital... ehm.... ship, what do you think" to pop up soon.

They're certainly one of the cheaper "Naval vessels"... only water-walking Militia could beat them on IC-days

 

[Lord Finnish]

Papillon is back

 

[Gormadoc]

No. No cheat codes used at all in this game... not even "nofog" or "showid".

OK, then i have no explanation. Could be interresting to see what the particular Garrisons savegame entry is though.

Kind of throws the, which ship is best soakoff ship in carrier taskforce analysis down the drain.
