Capturing land for dead nation

[Lance Patchwork]

Soooo i was in late 1938 when german forces managed to capture my allied capital town of france, when i saw the war machine moving head on for them i quickly tried to send unit to them, but sadly i was too late. So pulling back and gathering my forces, i managed to sink a LOT but a LOT of merchant fleet from germany, THEY just kept sending them out as i was blowng them up for almost 2 month of ame time non-stop... come on now... do something on the AI PLEASE.

Also when i was tired of picking off easy target i sent the bulk of my force and managed to land and capture 2 town next to ach other uppon disambark, one had a barrack and military complex, crucial for my beachhead. i kept fighting for a while and noticed my unit going all the way back to canada for repair. Utterly confused as to why they were doing that since i had captured all i needed to repair... i realised ALL the captured land was going to france!!!! a DEAD nation?!?!

Also when i started playing the 1936 sandbox game, i noticed that quebec had loyalty to wich was *DEAD* uppon starting the game... really? why is the loyalty to quebec dead when is part of canada, why not simply make it loyal to canada, utterly confused.... if it was about the separatist, it started way later than 1936......

Anyway, seeing myself capturing land back for france while it was dead, thats pretty much a fun/game killer bug, and please dont tell me its a feature to claim land back to the original owner when the government is gone...... I wont be fighting the german if my force has to pull back to canada for repairs... why cant we use allied facility if we have a proper alliance?

During WW2 i dont think US and canadian force would send all their forces back to homeland for repair but use existing infrastructure if it wasnt hostile....

The ability to "revive" dead nations was something strongly requested by the community. If you have formal alliance or mutual defense with a region, even a dead one, you will recapture for that region where the territory is loyal to them.

Units repair in the field. They repair any time there is supply available. They repair faster in reserve which is taking the unit offline. My impression is that in WW2 during the invasion of Europe they didn't stop for large scale repairs, they just reformed units in the field and moved on.

Well that reviving nation is interesting, but i take it that if i sever all ties with france even tho its dead it will have major diplomatic impact?
