VP Congress: Session 5, Proposal 81

Made in response to the Magus, this proposal is accepted despite the proposal deadline.

	Current	Proposed	Differences	Rationale	Implementation Note
Captured Unit Mechanic	Captured units start with 25% of their maximum health, supply-free, 0 moves, and 0 XP.	Captured units start with 25% of their maximum health, supply-free, full moves (cannot attack, however), and 0 XP.	They start with the moves that they begin with initially, but cannot attack. This lets you move them out of the way into safety if possible or even start pillaging... even. Affects all units like Sea Beggars and Hunnic's Unit Capture specifically.	This mechanic needs a buff. It's too harsh on the AI since you see a 25 HP unit, you're going to kill it instantly for that delicious Authority yield or inflict war weariness.	I can fully sponsor this.
