Question about rail damage.

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

Question about rail damage.

Post by Lützow »

Currently playing Road to Minsk, Axis side.

At beginning of turn 2 there are many damaged rail lines in conquered hexes, but only three of those are undergoing automatic repair. However, regarding Commander's Report I own 59 construction battalions and toggling through HQ's I see plenty of them in range. Why do the remaining constructors slack?

Not every construction bn repairs the rail, they are adding a lot to fort construction.

Sorry that your question wasn't answered yesterday, there are so many questions that it's almost a full time job to answer all of them.

As I explained in another thread, the automated battalions will only repair/convert one rail hex along a certain line each turn, so if hex A is a friendly rail line, hex B next to it contains a damaged friendly rail line and hex C next to hex B contains another damaged friendly rail line, the automated battalions will try to fix hex B, but will not fix hex C until next turn.

FBD and NKPS units can repair multiple hexes along a line each turn.
