Fuel and Movement Points

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).

Fuel and Movement Points

Post by MrBlizzard »

Sometimes I find armored or mechanized divisions that start the turn with full fuel but only a fraction of possible MP;



Look e.g at the 12th PzDiv in the image, it has 98% of fuel but only 32 MP instead than 49 MP that I expected.
Why? [&:]

It should be influenced by commander admin rolls if I understand the manual correctly.

Yes thanks, just checking the "condensed rules" and there's more.
-20% MP reduction for failed adm rolls in the chain of command.
-20% MP reduction for failed initiative rolls in the CoC
-xx% MP for average fatigue divided per 10

For motorized units there's also veichles shortage penalty to consider
