Ist Rumanian Army

[BrianG]

When does the First Rumanian Army HQ release for movement.

In mid 42 , 2 or 3 corp attached to 1st Rumanian Army are unfrozen.

What about papa bear? Does he hibernate until the Russians are right next to the cave entrance?

Unfortunately I don't think they release until the Rumanians switch sides (like historical) so it may mean that you need to reassign those Corps HQs.

Although 3rd and 4th Rumanian army have more than enough corps HQs already, and assigning to other National HQs would mean SUs do not flow. You could reassign them to be independent corps, but then for the points cost that is little different from leaving them assigned to 1 Rm Army - which I why I usually mostly leave them that way.

I leave them attached to the 1st as well, but it kind of breaks the immersion of having the Army HQ in Rumania while the troops fight in the Caucasus

It also can be used as garrison HQ under the RHG command. It helps to extend the command radius and to pass the check (building fort etc.). What do you think about it?

[Telemecus]

I would say garrisons never need an HQ per se - you would be better off just reassigning all garrisons to OKH. But you can use extra HQs to increase fortification levels for your digging units, or just to supply a unit that would otherwise be out of range of all other HQs.
