Can crews that abandon a gun "re-crew" it after they get their morale back/suppression down? Seems like they should but I cannot make it happen.

Thanks.

Hi Joe,

Welcome to the forum.

Sometimes I will pick up a crew, that has abandoned their gun and fled, with a nearby transport.

Crews that have abandoned their gun are 'retreating' or 'routed', and you can only move them back on foot when they are 'ready'; but you can pick them up with transport and return them while they are still 'pinned'.

Once they are back at their own gun (can only re-crew their own equipment) they will usually re-crew it by the next turn, as long as they don't get shot at again.

I recommend you download the Hot key Quick Reference sheet here:

This sheet is a quick way to learn many of the things you are able to do in SP, and how to do them.

cheers,
