AP Points Always Max Cost?

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

AP Points Always Max Cost?

Post by rainman2015 »

As i understand it, when you do something like transfer a division (at a cost of 3 APs), there is a chance that it will cost only half the APs if the leader makes his (i think admin) roll. Same thing for Corps HQ transfers or i think support units transfers, right?

Well, i have been watching for weeks and weeks, and have NEVER EVER seen anything less than the MAX cost be deducted from my AP total. It is always 1 to transfer a support unit, 3 to transfer a division, etc.

Am i missing something?

Thanks

rainman2015 I agree - It used to regularly work that in earlier versions 1.06 etc that the admin points for a transfer were sometimes reduced.

Since I installed 1.08 it always uses the full admin point cost

Perhaps this thread should go in the tech forum

Working as designed. On the other hand costs are already lower. Sometimes by more than half.

So, the costs are reduced up front with the new version(s) and we should no longer expect a possible halving of cost due to a leader making an admin roll when we, say transfer a corps HQ to another Army?

i.e. the cost is the cost now, reduced up front?

Its way better now.

I am constantly moving divisions between Corp HQ before big attacks or late war as I retreat.

Yes, reduced up front and depends on unit size in men and distance between HQs in the HQ tree.
