Playing Republican Spain, Axis has taken all of Europe right up to my doorstep, I'm mobilizing like crazy to prepare for the blitz but I need army experience so I take all of my super-heavy tank brigades, send them to volunteer with the UK until I need them again (I'd rather have to wait for my offensive heavy hitters to get back from Africa than my defensive ones once Germany finished justifying against me).
My incredibly, stupidly expensive & massive, over-bloated divions of super-heavy tanks that I intend to micromanage to never be left defending (they have a sister-army of mechanized infantry meant to act as the anvil to their hammer) intended to scrape the axis off of the northern coast of Africa arrives, in Italy, in the southern-most tile of Veneto, the final tile of Italy currently held by a single division of UK marines left over from their failed naval invasion, which is A) in marsh, B) locked in by rivers, C) no victory points access to resupply from, %100 cut off and C) has no access to ports and is currently surrounded by 40 panzer divisions.

The game might as well have had an error box pop up when I clicked send volunteers that said there's a problem with HOI4 and that army has been crashed and will be deleted from the game. Thanks Paradox
Anyone else have a half a million troops zapped out of their game by send-volunteer silliness?

Spain sucks in this patch. Honestly, paradox needs to ditch the civil war, at least for a human player when historical focus is turned off. It's just stupid and pointless, especially because WHEN YOU PLAY AS ANY OTHER NATION YOU GET FULL CONTROL OVER WHETHER OR NOT CIVIL WAR EVEN TRIGGERS. Yet for some reason Spain is railroaded and forced into a civil war that makes it basically unplayable. Ok so we railroad Spain into a civil war they cant win, let's also railroad Germany into certain defeat, CAUSE THATS WHAT HAPPENED HISTORICALLY RIGHT? This patch, you can't get enough forces to beat the enemy, no matter what side you choose. Because the enemy takes most of your army, even the ones in training which is total BS.

I even tried deleting every existing army unit, yet somehow when the event fires, both sides magically get soldiers out of thin air. That's insane, if i have an army of 0 and they take some, how is it more than 0?

The general 'beaming' system of those volunteers seems odd.
As Brazil I conquered whole of Belgish Congo and constantly Belgium Forces (with permission to walk through France) sneak over the colony border taking back bits of Congo. (I am in peace with Communist France.)

And as soon as a tiny jungle province turns yellow Columbia teleports volunteers in it.
:/
