Calling Up Generals Issue

Fri May 06, 2016 2:32 pm

Hey, anyone experienced an issue of calling up generals and them not appearing on the map? I receive a message saying e.g. France has called up generals - but no-one has appeared. Is there a delay of a number of turns for generals to appear?

My game appears to be deducting the cost - stating generals have been called up but none are appearing in my capital. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Can you post a save?

Unfortunately no, I deleted the save file and started again - no similar worries in this play through.
Is this something that can occur as a glitch in some save files?

Thanks for the response!

Cheers

Sorry for the late response, I've been out of town on a business trip the last few days.

Without the save I can't say for sure, but I suspect this may be tied to an issue I've seen from time to time with Regional Decisions being removed if the cost can't be paid. What myself and another tester suspect is if an RGD can't be paid, if causes ALL other RGD's to fail for that turn. So, for example, if you put down an RGD for Print Money but couldn't pay the cost for it, and had later put down the Call Generals, if would cause both the Print Money and Call Generals to fail. There may be more than just this cause though, as I can't always replicate it. One thing that does seem to help is keeping a bit of money (say, $500) in reserve that's not used for paying RGDs or recruiting. When I do this, it seems to avoid this issue.

I have seen this behavior in other games, so makes sense as a reason.

Thank you both - I have not had this issue again in my new save. I must admit that I am not totally convinced by the reasoning but it is interesting to know that is a possibility. Hopefully by avoiding the situation you describe I can prevent this happening again.

Thanks for the responses and rapid feedback, I really appreciate it.

Cheers,

Ringtone!
