What causes quality to increase?

[Bronze]

As the game goes on and an exhaustion drop or two has occured, I will have German units change fom B to A and C to B and Austrian units change from C to B. How does this work? Is there an undocumented experience factor within the game? One of the Gd units usually changes first and once a Gd unit didn't even drop from A to B with the exhaustion hit.

I just checked that and realized when I did the new refit I increased quality when it should have decreased.  Thanks for finding that!

Aha! I thought I was going nuts. My GDs corps, after being bled white in the 1915 Western front wrap-up, were increasing in quality as the OE resources were being fed into my factories and I refitted them before transfer to the Eastern front.

On a more serious note... How are folks working around this issue until the next patch? Are we just assuming that it applies to both sides so it's fair (for now)?

Thanks,
Terry

I work around it by not getting that far in any of my games yet!!
 
Well spotted!

I don't think it applies to auto refits?

[FrankHunter]

No, just the new refit method.
