Russian Production

[Scarz]

I am running into some production issues with the Russians in the campaign game.

To instances this issue has reared its ugly head.

First, I have several Sapper support regiments that will not fill up with replacements, although there are over 750+ sapper squads in the pool.

Second, I have two RVGK Artty support units that will not take replacements. The unit is composed of 76 How and 203mm I beleive. There are plenty of 76s in the pool, and no 203s. It also appears that neither gun has a specific factory producing them, but both say they are from 1939 to 1945 models.

Am I missing something? Can something be done to get guns and squads to these units?

I don't know about filling up the units, but the guns are built with armament factories (not any specific one).

[Scarz]

That's good to know about the guns, but I wonder why I am not getting any 203s...

Any ideas on the sapper squad issue?

[76mm]

Can you tell how many of the 203s have been produced? Are you sure that they are not simply going to other arty units? Might the fact that there are no 203s in the pool indicate that all production is going straight to units (or perhaps into the pool and then out to units in the same turn)?

[Scarz]

I will check and see if I can tell when I get the turn back. But there were none in the pool. While there are a lot of units using the 203s, the front has been very quiet for 4-5 months, just finished the mud seasons and the Germans are on the defensive. So the only losses have been the attrition you get between the lines.

I am really more concerned with the sappers, to have that many in the pool, but for them not to be feeding to the support units is worrisome.

[Scarz]

Still having the issue with the sappers and guns. I went ahead and deleted the two rvgk artty support units. However, the sapper units appear to have plenty in the pool, no reason they should not be filling up. To make matters worse, looks like they become obsolete in 43.

Anyone know if this is a bug or what?

I would be surprised if you can build 203mm howitzers since none were made after 1941.

[Scarz]

Not sure if that comment was supposed to be helpful or not, but here is the production of 203s, and sure looks like they get produced after 41.

That's not very proper now is it? There is no respect for history here, now is there? [:D]

Hello

As far as I know you need Manpowerpionts and sapper to fill this unit. So I think the bottlenack is the manpowerpoints. So you have the "Sapperdevices" but not enough man.
For the soviet side you have the problem that you have to resupply the old, the new arriving units and support units.

Hope it helps...
