No 5th Army HQ reinforcement in Trappenjagd?

The development team behind the award-winning games Decisive Campaigns: From Warsaw To Paris and Advanced Tactics is back with a new and improved game engine that focuses on the decisive year and theater of World War II! Decisive Campaigns: Case Blue simulates the German drive to Stalingrad and into the Caucasus of the summer of 1942, as well as its May preludes (2nd Kharkov offensive, Operation Trappenjagd) and also the Soviet winter counter-offensive (Operation Uranus) that ended with the encirclement of 6th Army in Stalingrad and the destruction of the axis minor armies. With many improvements including the PBEM++ system, this is a release to watch for wargamers!

No 5th Army HQ reinforcement in Trappenjagd?

Post by Reconvet »

Can it really be that in Trappenjagd tank corps for the historical HQ 5th Tank Army arrive, but neither the HQ itself nor its commanding general? Would I have to rename one of my HQ's or build one up from scratch to get my 5TA counter on the map?

In my pbem we have arrived at 1942/06/21, I just got several tank corps as reinforcements, but no sign of either HQ nor commander...

Can somebody confirm if this HQ arrives in one of the following turns? Thanks. [:)]

No only the units specified on the reinforcement unit list will arrive. No HQs are included on this list. So yes you'll have to attach them to another Army or create a new Army. By 21st June you should have had some other new officers arriving in the officerpool as well.

best,

Thanks for the info, good to know.

I just didn't want to screw up potentially scripted reinforcements via renaming an existing HQ, but now I feel free to do so.

I did get some generals by the way, unfortunately Liziukov (5TA-CO in CB) was not among those, which had led to the question mark if there might exist a scripted procedure to get him plus his 5TA HQ at a given date. Question mark removed. *sigh*
