Labor squads union

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).

Labor squads union

Post by Stelteck »

Hi.
I'am checking the differents types of supports available.

I found something funny. A full RR construction brigade of more than 2000 men provide 5 construction points.

A sapper regiment of 1000 men provide 10 or more.

I'am not sure to understand why sapper are twice more effective in building for half the men. Did labor union forbid simple labor squad to work more than 35 hour or something like that ?

Brakes are for cowards !!

Construction means building fortifications, not roads. Engineers have bonus for that, construction units do not.

Thanks. Did sapper regiment, as construction brigade, used to boost entrenchment capability of nearby divisions ?

According to manual, yes, but i ask just to be sure.

I assume now that people built sappers instead of construction units.

If you man the front with construction units, at least truck losses should be light [:D]

Only sappers in a HQ now help to build forts if I remember well. Construction units are only for rail repair.

RR construction brigades can help to build forts when attached to fortified zones too.
