Alright, I've at war with the Hive and Believers, and a little Believer sea base pops up next to my empire. No problem, I've seen them and they aren't doing anything threatening enough to deserve a spanking. Then I get an air on my peaceful supply crawlers. since a sea force is too much work, and I've got cash to spare, I build a probe. When I get there I find 8 Hive jets waitng as well. Bonus! I probe, take the base and. . . . . . the Hive jets ARE IN MY BASE, and I don't own them, as well as two Gaian jets(my allies, at war with the Hive as well). How is this possible? If I bought that base, how could those jets NOT be mine, or at least been forced to take off, since my ally oviously had the time to land jets. What's up? (My solution, if anyone was wondering, was to fly out my ex-Believer jets, and then use the Garrison to destroy the base, since it was little, and thus a liability to my efficiency, and it conveniently was a sunspsot year. That should have killed those jets, but I have seen jets fly away from a destroyed sea base after a nerve gas attack. I had turned off all controls that let me watch other units that weren't mine, so I wasn't sure). Oh, and I want to be able to Mind Control a Pact Brother's units. What's the use the Mind control if you can't? You can do it to his cities, why not units
