It could also be that the win event also triggered a fatal error or something. It happened to me once, but I forgot when and what the exact error was... Didn't really take not, since I assumed it was an extremely rare bug. Does this happen to you often? For me, it has only happened once, and I believe I was playing as the Americans in a 2v2 Skirmish.

Oh man, I love these kinds of threads. I always like nitpicking the grammar of in-game text descriptions in mods and make overly long and unnecessary suggestions and corrections to them. :P

Anyway, the description for the Field Support upgrade (and, except for a few words, the Heavy Support upgrade) say, ". . . Also, adds an additional Bren gun or Grenadier Rifle to upgraded Tommy squads and upgrades Sapper Boys rifles to PIATs."

- Change "Also, [it] adds . . ." to "[It] Also adds . . ." for better parallelism with "[It] Allows the . . ." in the first sentence. Ignore the text inside the brackets, that's only to indicate where the subject of the sentence should be. ;)
- "Grenadier Rifle" sounds rather weird. I think it should be replaced with "Rifle Grenade" since that's the actual name of the Tommy upgrade (in singular form), but I'm not sure if that's correct either, realistically speaking.
- Change "Boys rifles" to "Boys AT rifles" for similar reasons with the "Grenadier Rifle" above.
- Change "Tommy squads" and "Sapper" to the actual name of the RMC units, maybe? Since "Tommy squads" is more of a historical/community nickname, changing it to "Royal Marine Sections". Likewise, "Sapper" should be changed to "Marine Engineer".

So I just played a few skirmish games to test my earlier report about the "endless CP bug", and it seems that for at least all British/Commonwealth doctrines, one can still earn command points even when all abilities in the command tree have already been unlocked. This was supposed to be fixed in 1.7.0.0, but it looks like it still persists in the current version.

I also noticed that the maximum number of extra CPs for each doctrine is different. With Royal Engineers Support and Royal Artillery Support, you can get up to two CPs. With Royal Commandos Support, you can have up to five. The number of CPs will simply roll back to that number no matter how much experience you gain.

Here are a few screenshots showing the bug...

Commonwealth + Royal Commandos Support:

Oh. Well that explains everything then... :P I only reported this after noticing that the Marine Engineers I upgraded with Boys AT were holding PIATs and that every Marine Engineers squad I built afterwards had the PIAT upgrade. I'm sure I bought the Field Support upgrade some time during that game, but I guess I simply did not take it into consideration. So I guess that means that there is no bug, only my lack of awareness. Sorry about that. :-[

I'm experiencing both, I'm afraid. I don't have time to confirm now as I have a class coming up. Maybe later I'll post a screenshot on a separate thread (if that's necessary) to show you.

BTW: I'm delightfully surprised that you let the +XP symbols show up regardless if you've purchased all abilities in the CT or not. It's actually really satisfying to see those pop up, especially when you're raining down artillery on some hapless chap's infantry blob. :D

When playing as RMC, you will get a Marine Engineers squad at the beginning of the game. One of the upgrades you can purchase for that squad is the Boys AT rifle upgrade. However, upon purchasing that upgrade, you don't actually get Boys AT rifles---you get PIATs.

In addition to that, only the starting Marine Engineers squad for RMC actually has the Boys AT upgrade. Every other Marine Engineers squads you build will properly display the option to equip PIATs and not Boys AT rifles.

The Speed Governors upgrade was supposedly removed from the Royal Marines Commandos Headquarters Command Truck in 1.7.2.0, since the immobile command truck won't be able to benefit from it anyway. However, I played as RMC in my last game and found that this wasn't the case. Although the upgrade can't be purchased at all, the fact that the upgrade option still shows up seems wrong to me.

(Awful quality, I know, but I blame ImageShack for this one. :P)

Can anyone else confirm this? I seem to be noticing a few bugs that should have been fixed in the previous patches, namely, the endless CP bug and this, so it could be that I have installed the mod wrong. This is the order of my installation: 1.7.0.1 (full version installer), 1.7.0.2 (hotfix installer, since my launcher would check for new updates for almost an hour to no avail), 1.7.1.0 (patch installer, since my launcher still wasn't working), 1.7.2.0 (launcher update).

Just a minor bug that's been bothering me for a while. I'm sure I'm not the only one to have seen it, but I searched the forums and didn't see anyone else making mention of it nor have I found a topic posted here about it. So, just for good measure, I made this topic. ;D

Anyway, as you can see from the screenshot below, the description for the KV-1 in the Rewards tab is missing and currently set to "BLANK".
