Phantom artillery shoots

Weasel · #1 November 16th, 2005, 09:13 PM

Hi guys;

On 3 occasions now I have experienced "phantom arty shoots" at end turn. When I click the end turn button the game will show numerous batteries of the enemies arty shooting at me, but no rounds land and no damage is done. I cannot explain it; has anyone else experienced this?

It has happened in version 1.0 and 2.0, I have not played 2.5 yet.

I have the turn saved if required.

I only experience phantom shots when I've engaged the artillery units during my turn and they no longer have any shots. They're still slated to bombard in terms of the game, but they are either too suppressed or no longer exist to shoot at me.

All of these occasions are within 5 turns of game start, so lots of ammo.

Sometimes, it appears to happen when mixing HE artillery with AP (cluster type) artillery. Have you noticed this?

I experienced the phenomenon of artillery fire mission making the sounds of fireing but no shells landing...

I don't remember any other circumstances, but it was NOT out of ammo for sure...

Well at least I am not the only one. I know the cluster bombs don't show in the replays, but I should be able to see all arty land at turn end.
