Ork Mission 7 - I ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up? Cant build Gretchins...
.... i have the warcamp and have to send gretchins into the last two turrets. i dont know how and when it happend, but i have now a population of 272/250. that means i cant build gretchins anymore. but i also cant kill my own units, even pressing "delete" key doesnt work. is there any possibilty to kill my own units?

--- i even dont know how i got the over the population limit, i guess it happend with building many units from the scrappiles..

plz help ... i only have a save from an hour ago..

I thought you got the gretchins by buildings you capture or the scrap pile. Don't they hide in the towers/piles and you need to clear the area for them to appear?

Don't think there is any friendly fire, I take it you've wiped the map..... Stormboys?

isnt there some infinite spawning point at the bottom right of the map? slightly northeast of the two last vents?

wow... thanks man, you were right. my big tracks shot them in seconds, i even didnt realize.
i now send all my units away and send single units, will take hours cause i only have vehicles but i think it will work. not sure if loading the old save wouldnt be faster though... :steamhappy::steamfacepalm::steambored:

but thanks for the hint... there really spawn some units


Edit: It worked, i let the single units just circle walk the enemy spawns and now i have my gretchins back.

Thanks man! :thumbs up:

If relic is looking at this, this should really be cause to create a kill unit button like there was in the first DoW.
You have to lose ALL gretchin to get a refill.

I've been protecting my remaining gretchin, and this was the reason why I wasn't getting more of 'em. :facepalm:
