Problem with Transforming Skratti

[samoht]

Playing latest CBM in a MP game.

Maybe I'm not the first to notice this, but I have a few thugged out skratti in their werewolf forms and I decided to transform them back to their giant forms so they could do some blood hunting for me. They were all equipped in all slots except boots, and when I transformed them they suddenly lost everything except what was in their misc slots, even tho they still had the same slots available.

Anybody else notice this? I just restarted the turn and left them in their werewolf form, but this is quite a hassle.

Any unit with the shapchange ability loses the items in the slots that are not shared with the new form. There isn't anything you can do about it.

There is an intermediate form of the wolf that only has misc slots. When you hit that form, you lost your gear.

Ahh. Disapointing, but it makes sense. Thanks for the heads up! Another one of those things I hope gets fixed in Dom IV....

Why would you want to have it fixed?? It actually makes a lot of sense. Imaginge a normal puny human with some armour transforming into Hulk. All the armour that won't fit would be destroyed.(or like dragons that cannot really wield swords obv you will loose the swords)

haha I just figured my magic wielding skratti would be smart enough to not (somehow) destroy their magic equipment when transforming from their werewolf form to their giant wolf form that they inexplicably have to take before they can turn back into normal giants. I'd like to think they would just put the swords and armor down for a second and then pick them up once they can use them agian.

put them down for a second and then pick them up once they can use them again like in a laboratory by the order of their pretender god?
