Laying your arms

RE: Laying your arms
No you should not award half SPs for voluntarily surrendering.

A loss of one of your SPs is a loss of one of your SPs. That SP is lost to you for the current battle, whether killed wounded or captured.

Also somthing to keep in mind. A loss of 1 Infantry SP does not mean all 5 guys were killed. It could mean 1 badly wounded guy and the other 4 take him to the aid station.

It is an abstract representation of the removal of 5 men (1SP) from the battlefield.

Thanx!

And what about saved lives? Whips

How did that work for the 91,000 Germans who surrendered at Staingrad?

Poorly for all but 5,000.

How did that work for the 75,000 who were captured at Bataan?

Poorly for about 20,000.

Surrendering to the enemy did not mean you saved your life.

Thanx!
