However - a mass deletion of core troops soon made the numbers go funny.. So something is wrong in there - probably old code that has not been updated to a 32 bit value for the points total, likely a 16 bit integer internal to the delete routine - will be investigating that later tomorrow.
So - did you happen to do a mass deletion at some point?

OK - found the culprit that was stuffing a signed 32 bit value into an unsigned 16 bit value and so blowing the delete code up.
Unfortunately, the relevant value is squirrelled away in the
save game data as a 16 bit - so its a bit more involved than just changing the variable's type in a function
.
I'll need to deal with legacy scenarios and saved games with the obsolete variable (and add new 32 bit ones to the save game files)... data massage tango, here we go!
