Moving units for Barbarossa

Post by Balbus »

How do you move units quickly across the land map? I cant seem to figure out how to use railroads. After taking over France, I can force march units across the map, but I would assume I could move them by rail. What am I missing here? I have been reading the manual, but I must of missed it.
Thanks in advance.

What you're looking for is called Operational Movement (Manual, page 53: 6.3.2. Operational Movement)

A popular move after the fall of France is to move your planes, a paratrooper and a German HQ to Sicily and capture Malta.

Malta is important to capture because it hurts Axis North Africa troops supply if in the hands of the Allies.

To capture drive the supply of Malta down by hitting with Battleships and blockage the ports. Then bomb repeat & capture.

If the Allies try to stop with its Navy its like shooting fish in a barrel, buy a Maritime bomber early if you are concerned.


One of the most important components of a successful Barbarossa attack is to take out most (all) of the Russian reinforcements when you declare war.


Hope this helps, took me a while to figure it out


enjoy.
