Unexpected Command Ship Behavior

from GalCiv4 Forums

I am playing as the Torians and I assigned a leader to the "Tlas's Flagship" command ship.  I used that ship to attack a Ship Graveyard and it successfully killed all 3 defenders.  However, I noticed that the ship gained 6 hit points after the battle, which was unexpected.

The first screen snapshot below is from the Battle Report and it shows that the ship's hit points are 77 out of a max. of 80.  The second screen snapshot was taken after exiting the Battle Report and looking at the ship's data.  Notice that the ship's hit points are now 77 out of a max. of 86.  The "Special Abilities" for the ship say that the ship gives 5 influence to every world after each battle.  It does not say anything about adding hit points.

I am not complaining about getting free hit points, but I thought the programmers may want to look at this command ship (and all the others) to make sure it does what it says it should, no more and no less.

The ship leveled up

Command ships let me choose the upgrade I want when they have gained enough experience.  "Normal" ships automatically gain hit points when they gain enough experience.  I would not expect a command ship to automatically gain hit points.
