Ground Unit Recovery

Post by vimconfused »

Late '43 in the long German campaign and three of my units manning the Gustav Line are shown red and are at "95 disruption" (whatever that means). The trouble is that they are staying at that level whether or not they get air attacked. Meanwhile several other units on the same line have been bombed, "gone orange", and recovered. Is there a bug that means certain units get stuck with disruption and cannot recover? Will this have any implications for the Allies breaking the line?

Click on the unit and it's line of supply will eventually appear.  There are many factors which affect unit supply status, which has an impact on disruption recovery.  Does it go through badly damaged railyard?  How long is it?  Is some of by truck, not rail - something you cannot see.  The availability of trucks is also a factor.  They are produced like other equipment, but there is no pool displayed.  If you have hit the few truck manufacturing plants it is going to affect the number of trucks and therefore the amount of supply required.

The bottom line is there are a myriad of unknown factors impacting your ground units which are not displayed - the ground war is after all out of your command authority.

I would not be concerned about those units and their status on the ground war.  Breakthrough events are primarily date driven.

There are eight units on the Gustav Line. When revealing their supply chains they all go through exactly the same junctions/transport nodes. Some of these junctions are bombed red. Three of the units show "out of supply" and the others do not. However, I take your point about not being unduly concerned. Obviously though I wonder why certain things happen to particular units that seem to share exactly the same circumstances as others.

Incidentally, six weeks later none of these three units have recovered beyond 95 disruption. So many other things have changed in this time I can't believe this is correct.
