Resetting Axis Units Prior to Invasion

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).

Resetting Axis Units Prior to Invasion

Post by ruffels »

Hi Guys. I'm new to this game and I'm wondering if it is possible to do your own set up of Axis units prior to attacking on the first turn? I have been looking to see if there is some kind of teleport button but I don't see one so I'm assuming not.
If not I'm assuming the Axis positions are historical? Just not sure why many hexes adjacent to the border only have two infantry units in them. Don't we want to get as many movement points as we can out of them instead of wasting them moving to the border?
Thanks!

No

They are historical and fixed - for both sides

I'm not retreating, I'm attacking in a different direction!
