I am currently playing a Kolbs Farm mod (using BGC) and we have come across something neither one of us has seen before. One of the Reb supply wagons became uncrewed. He couldn't move it, nor could he recrew it (trying the same method that one would to recrew artillery). I eventually overran the wagon. Has anyone come across this before? If so, what did you do? Thanks.

Never seen that before. Could it have been an anomaly from the mod? Maybe the mod creator tweaked something that resulted in that result.

I had it happen once in a BGG game (13a, I think) The wagon became uncrewed during my defensive fire. After I overran it I didn't try to recrew it, but it dispensed it's supplies to any unit wit low ammo that got within 5 hexes.

Perfectly normal that it can happen. Acts as a fixed supply base from there forward. Usually not worth shooting at Supply Wagons in most battles, so you don't see it all that often...

Perhaps I hadn't seen it before because I never fire at supply wagons. In this game it was my defensive fire that uncrewed it.
