Look in the events reports. You are sometimes offered the purchase of a ship. that can put in minus PPs. Other events require PP payments, such as the one where there is unrest in Germany.

You have to be careful about event choices.

By the way, you should be playing 1.03V3 beta.

Thank's, i did it.
but the answer for me is not so clear...
Situation:
I no bought ships
1/09/1939 (turn 3)
Total units strenght: 376,16
Total upkeep 134.34 (upkeep??!!?? Maintenance??!!?? What is the cost of mainenance? The rule don't say anything about maintenance...)
PP After upkeep subtraction -25.55
Current pp -25.55
I bought only infantry in turn one (4 corps and 4 divisions), and these units will arrive between 7 (and 3) turns
Sorry, but if the german cannot reinforce his army at start, when is it possible?
It's a bug of my version? Before the installation of 1.02 version I had no problems...... or problems like that!
Thanks a lot (and sorry for my horrible english...)

Don't use 1.02. Go to 1.03v3

You must be playing on a hard level.

Use the next level lower.

Also when units come in as reinforcements they cost PP and it is automatically taken out of the bank which can make you negative.

Thanks a lot...
Last (I hope) questions...
My version of TOF has the automatic download for update (Check for update). When I clik on "check for update" I received a message "You have The latest version" (I have 1.02). How I can install 1.03 release?

For Razz:
I'm playng at normal level.... And, with the previous version, I haven't this problem. It's a bug of 1.02 version? Because I think there is no reason in the world for what happened..... In turn 2 (2, not 200)you cannot have problem of upkeep!!!! I think is frustrating playng with german at "very simple" level and russian at "hard level". And if I use simple level for Russia the game end in 1942 (if you double the PP point but the cost of units remain the same, the advantage for russia it's amazing!!!)
But, however, do you know the rule about upkeep?? I'm unable to find them!!! Where I can read (or learn) the rules?
Thank you very much for the answers!

Sorry, I'm you're nightmare, I suppose....[;)]
I try to install the 1.03 version, but I received the message "... impossible find AUDIERE.DLL on your pc...."
I use windows 7.....
Panic or no panic?
Thanks

I'd guess you put the patch in the wrong folder, and are trying to start from that wrong folder. audiere.dll is in the main ToF folder. Make sure you patch into the ToF folder, overwriting where requested.
