28. Garrisoning crashes (castle, for example) In GLA 5 there is a castle in the
middle of the map with additional units garrisoned inside. Send a vehicle to
this castle to gain the units (they will transfer ownership to the player if he
gets close). You gain 14 units. If you garrison the castle with any more than
14, the game will crash. There are 26 slots available in the castle. This is
now fixed.
29. If the player did a certain action at a certain time (depended on
connection), then reconnected, the game would time out and award both players a
win.
30. The US Intelligence tool tip said it took 2 minutes to re-charge when it
actually took 5 minutes.

as exploits.
