Here is my problem;

I play as Germany, in the Grand Campaign. Despite being surprised by the Allies attacking me in 1937 (when I had done nothing aggressively) the war was going fine. I quickly wiped out France (by triggering the Vichy Event), took out Belgium & Holland, and even annexed UK (after looking desperately after their key provinces, getting a list would be helpful)

A war with Russia later, I had my borders secure and decided it was time to make Usa & Canada realise they where not standing a chance. After a failed invasion attempt in the Us (I still dont get how the supply lines are supposed to work when you invade another continent) I had to withdraw and secure my island outside Canade (St Port, or something like that). I have two fleets positioned there; one attack fleet of ground ships and one submarine flotilla which I use to patrol the waters outside the port.

I also have a substantial army placed there; 9 infantry and 1 tank (and a couple of missiles which I use to nuke the Us now and then), and they are all in supply.

Now, suddenly Canada appears with a unit on the island. Sometimes it is a tank, and sometimes a marine. Sometimes they have a transport ship close (which they might have come from) but sometimes there are no transport ships in any of the sea zones surrounding the island.

The problem is that this unit instantly kills my entire army. The log shows that they win the hour after they land, and the few times I have to pause to select the fight, I notice that both my troops and their single troop are at strength 100 for an hour before they magically win.

This sometimes happens on Belfast too, but not as often.

The bug is repeatable in the sense that it will semi-regularly show up in my game, but not repeatable in the sense that it happens on certain dates.

Needless to say, it is quite annoying, since all I can do is to go back to my latest save and replay, hoping the event wont show up this time.

What can I say the message is clear "Don't mess with Canadians" They have secret training camps under the snow. Maybe it has to do with a lot of Beta testers being Canadian. ;)

Just don't know what is going on here so I will let another mod log this one. *Castellon passes the buck*

The Elite Hockey Teams of Doom (TM) strike again :D

I may be wrong, but perhaps this is related to the situation where a unit (for no clear reason, perhaps commander loyalty) immediately routs upon being attacked. Normally that's just incredibly frustrating and mystifying, but if the unit has no path of retreat (on a one-province island and can't retreat to transports, or just in a one-province pocket) it's downright deadly.
