looks like he got the viral hook up..1.6 mil pr after a wipe out..
no idea what he kept/captured, should have no captures with the wipe out.


meh, don`t virals have enough going for them without bugs like this?

Maraudian: what do you mean capture v. capture? Every time I have attacked a Viral or been attacked by a Viral, either of us didn`t capture....

there is a different bug that has to do with Chirons, but thats not about capturing.....

capture is loaded with bugs , especially if its capture vs capture

well you dont get ships if you have lost the same ships in battle....

so for example, the borrs of that viral (:P) fight your Tyrs.... they capture your Tyrs... as long as that Viral doesn`t have Tyrs in his fleet (or at least doesn`t lose all the Tyrs that were in his fleet) then he gets those Tyrs, even if the borrs are killed....

also (but ofcourse you know) that a Viral doesn`t capture ships if the enemy has either V-class or H-class (Collective) ships in their fleet.....

but ofcourse I am not saying GC is free of bugs :P
but most times, the capturing works just fine.....

I have played viral, and I have been wiped and not kept captured ships.
Also, having attacked enough virals over the years I can tell you that more often then not when one is wiped, even the captured ships are removed.
So wheether its a bug or a feature I think an update is called for.

hmmmm maybe better freshen up on how capturing works.....

even if borrs (or Chirons get wiped), the Viral still gets the ships the boors (or the Chirons) captured before they got wiped....

so I think this is not a bug, but how Stephen programmed the game....
