Where did the Panzer II in the spanish campaign go?

[Drokk]

After a mission I got the option to spend prestige to make Franco not return a Panzer II prototype and instead give it to me.
But I didn't get a Panzer II in my forces, neither did a prototype appear to buy, not te mission after either.
Where did it go?

It auto-deploys I believe on Turn 2 or 3.

[Drokk]

Nope. Not that mission or the following mission. I'm at the third mission after I payed prestige for it and still nothing.

Should have gotten an auto-deploy similar to the Verdeja. Sounds like either a bug, or a mis-click on the the selection pop-up.

Then you are bugged somehow, you pay the prestige and the panzer II spawns on the map at the beginning of turn 2 or 3. You may have had a unit in the spawn location and thus it could not deploy I am not sure if this would cause it to never deploy or not. I just played trough the SCW and had no troubles getting this tank into my force.

The spawn location has a few hex buffer to prevent blocking. It would require blocking of every single hex to prevent it from appearing.

In fact, it is a huge buffer zone:

zone = { {4,3},{5,4},{6,4},{4,5},{5,6},{5,7},{6,8},{5,9},{2,10},{3,10},{4,10},{5,10} }

Ok some bug then. I got the Verdeja a few missions earlier spanwed in on the map behind my troops. It was no misclick because I got confirmation that they would send it to me and it reduced prestige and told me how many I had left. I want a PzII but I really don't want to go back and hope that it spawns and replay three missions after :(

Thanks for the info Kerensky. I thought it might but was not sure, that was only reason I could think of that it would not arrive.

I googled a bit more and found a few others on the slitherine forum that had the same problem. I tested to restart Teruel just to see and it did spawn turn 2 in hex (4,3) that time.
Maybe the charging cavalry occupied all those spawn squares the first time but that seems unlikely since they are 3 fewer than the amount of hexes, but maybe my troops occupied the last three, which still seems unlikely.

The same happened to me on the Verdeja. 3rd turn, still no tank. I had to restart the mission and then it showed up at the beginning of my second turn.
