IIRC rifle divisions with 7 wins can become guards

VVS - Soviet air force
AG - Army Group
N - north, C - center, S - south

so AGN is army group north and etc.

I suppose this changes will apply to an existing games too?

yes, it is typical
also chat system in this game is basically non existent, as you can send like 1 message when you submit a turn or something like that, so that is not surprising that people dont communicate

Here is start of Axis t7
you can move few units to match starting Axis position during Soviet turn 8

Unfortunately my opponent can't find pre log saves.

As for the Bryansk front with 0 MPs - it was another server game that ended.
In current game there were no enemy units nearby when it arrived and no problems with it.

Moving things to the reserve under some conditions may be possible, but if arrival from reserve uses the same calculations, than you could end up with no units unless the entry hex is safely repositioned each turn.

Some units directly arrive into the reserve, without going to the map first. Maybe ...

That screenshot is from the start of Soviet turn 8. Which exact pre log save do you need?
In this rar i attach start of turn 8 and Soviet pre log 8,9 (no idea how they work and which to give).

I mentioned couple of things in this topic.

As for the screenshot in the first post - that HQ ...

I can give you the save, but it did not arrive with 0 MP. It had some MPs, problem is that spawned in such a position that even with 50 MPs there was no way to get out. So i had to replace leader there, as it spawned with a good one, to avoid potential leader death. And on the next turn it was ...

Another example is NKPS that for some reason spawns near Leningrad. By that time Leningrad might already not have ground connection with the rest of the map and Soviet player has to somehow move it away via port, which might not have enough capacity.

That unit just spawned there. Scripted reinforcement.

In previous server game Bryansk front had 0 MP and also spawned near an enemy. In current game it spawned with 50 MPs.

another example is when Bryansk front arrives and can be spawned near enemy units that are few hexes away and still have 0 MPs.

Is there any reason not to spawn HQs somewhere behind Moscow in 1941?

cool

is it WAD that Soviets lose 50%, every 2nd turn equipment is built, of their production due to this?

I noticed that there is no conversion of il-2 airframes and t-34 chassis into actual il-2 planes and t-34 tanks.

Number of airframes/chassis goes up correctly, but for some reason that is it.

No factories damage/evacuation.

Do they fire/hit more with higher ammo requirements?

According to the living manual.

Which also makes logical sense, however in the game units that join a battle via reserve activation use CV of a hex, maybe with fortifications, where they actually are.
I saw it before, but did not make a screenshot.
Today i got another example. You will never ...

Powerful battalion gives 4.5 times more CV than whole division.

Game vs Leumas.
Seems that SU do not suffer from disruption of first winter rules

Wiedrock has more examples, but refuses to post them, so i will do :)

As far as i understand he did some unit conversion, assuming that German unit does not have any penalties and its ammo need is 100%. Then Soviet unit in 1941 will have only 20% of what German unit requires. Which is far off of ...
