RE: Russia! Why not? (Morvael welcome)

If you are low on trucks, why form 40 Light SP regiments? That will add around 5k to your trucks needed with troop deficit as well as expanding the number of trucks needed for supply?

RE: Missing 3rd division of 4th RC in 43 campaign

I've found five or six other partial corps scattered around. The really bad part is that transferring a division that is part of a corps cost extra AP. I think 10 or 11 when failing ldr check.

Missing 3rd division of 4th RC in 43 campaign

<t> I'm starting the 43 campaign as the Soviets, and while looking over the units noticed that on the Finish border, with the 7th Ind Army there is an anomaly.<br/>

Two of the divisions (272RD & 368 RD) are listed as being components of the 4th Rifle Corps. But there is no third division for ...

RE: pre-assault Air Bombing ?

Bombing the stack you are going to attack also causes disruption and fatigue to the defenders, which lowers their actual CV. Don't be fooled by the killed 10 men and 1 art result, well worth doing on tough hexes.

RE: Printing out the OOB

There was a way to output to a .csv file, or maybe that was only from a scenario.....

Then you could import into a spread sheet. I used to play around with that, then I got used to the CR.

Anyone remember how to export to csv?

Question about ports

<r> Does anyone know how much damage ports can have and still serve as a source of supply?<br/>

I have two ports on the Baltic Coast, a size 4 with 46% damage and a size 3 with 47% damage. One is a supply source, the other is not. If it was 50% - port size then either both should work, or ...

RE: Soviet CV multiplied by 6. WAD?

I've noticed that 3 Sov Corps will almost always retreat 1 Ger Div, no matter what the CV says. Likewise 3 Sov Div will retreate 1 Ger Regiment.

This explains why.

RE: Supply Question

<t> Interesting, so don't move the HQ in range until after the initial restocking, that way the AB draws directly from rail rather than pulling from HQ. I'll try that.<br/>

Supply Question

<t> I’m trying to understand what happened in my current game, and the rule book doesn’t cover it.<br/>

It’s late December 42, GC as Sov vs AI. I’d outrun my supply lines and called a halt to the offense while waiting for the rail lines to catch up. Also I had withdrawn all planes to NR for ...

RE: Building Soviet Army/Front w/18 point cap

<t> I guess it makes more sense to have over cap fronts vs under strength armies. Makes a better use of both SU & good army level leadership. <br/>

At 81 CP front could go with 4x18 +/- 9 AB/ART bde.<br/>

At 90 4x18 +18 in artillery/AB using separate corp/army HQ for artillery ...

<t> I've been away from the game for over a year and am just getting to Apr 42 in my GC.<br/>

It used to be easy, three armies per front and the caps expanded together. I've already had to deal with the first downsize from 24 - 20 for army cap, and responded by putting four armies per front ...

Also you have to factor in the other "Soviet Republics" for population. The USSR was not just Russian, but the United Soviet Socialist Republic.
