Did they? I can't recall the devs talking about covering that. From the forum rules:

NOTE: There will not be any gulags or deathcamps (including POW camps) to build in Hearts of Iron4, nor will there be the ability to simulate the Holocaust or systematic purges, so I ask you not to discuss these topics as they are not related to this game. Thank You. Threads bringing up will be closed without discussion.

See: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/foru...i-iv-forum-rules-read-before-you-post.875352/

So including POWs into the game would come very close to skating over their forum rules. Unless they did say it and my memory's having a white-out, you'll probably end up with this thread closed. If they did say it, probably worth posting a reference pronto :).

The only way I could imagine it working, is if there are no POW camps, and it is extremely abstract. As in, you get a certain percentage of losses back as manpower once the war is over to represent prisoners of war. That would be the closest you could get without violating the rules and is kind of pointless given that it only matters after the war is over. For all intents and purposes, POWs have no effect, gameplay wise, are difficult to implement in a way that is legal in all countries, may offend some people, and may raise its rating to M or AO. So no. Even if they said so in a dev diary, I doubt it, other than maybe the manpower trickleback I said earlier.

It's ok. The thread is probably going to be closed, but you arent going to get any type of infraction or anything like that. People make mistakes. Now to catch up on the world war wednesday! :)

No, you didn't. I do believe podcat said that there would maybe be captured/encircled troops kept track of that would be partially returned to the manpower pool when a peace is signed with that nation.
