Where did the vehicles go?(found an answer)

Post by Stamb »

this battle report shows that there was 2426 vehicles in a battle and 506 were lost
it leaves us with 1950 vehicles
2.png
2.png (5.79 MiB) Viewed 517 times
on the next turn we can see that that this divisions received 104 vehicles from a pool
3.png
3.png (4.13 MiB) Viewed 517 times
and now it has 1442 vehicles out of 1670
4.png
4.png (5.21 MiB) Viewed 517 times
so 2426 - 506 (lost from combat) + 104 (from a pool) = 2024
where are the rest?

also routed division now requires 1670 vehicles
so it should be with 1670/1670 and rest sent to a pool?

or this is how game simulates that unit was actually beaten thus can not be at max vehicles?

just noticed that 582 vehicles were lost in attrition for freight delivery
at least i will know now that attrition means they are gone

so when we remove 582 from 2024 we got 1442 and this is exactly what current unit has
mystery solved :D

I track Soviet Truck activity (among a lot of other data) on an EXCEL spreadsheet. From turn 38 in my HvH game:
Truck Pools - General 25,129
Units 155,794
Depots 112,490
Repair 14,553
Total 307,966
change from previous turn +893
Memo - Used to ship freight 38,083

Truck additions - Build 130
LL 800
captured from Axis 1,057
repaired 4,850
Total 6,837

Trucks Lost - transporting supply 2,046
lost per loss report (from battles????) 510
unit movement 5,006
Total 7,562
Net gain/loss - 725
memo - soviet captured by Axis for the game 16,004

I'm sure I am missing something because why does the pool increase 893 but the additions and losses net to negative 725.

I have managed to work out all turn 1 movements, struggling with turn 2.

I see you are missing:
- trucks brought in by new units (this can be picked up from the Editor but might get near impossible if there are to many to count)
- trucks lost in Theatre boxes
- trucks sent to/from the TBs (depending on where you are picking up your pool numbers from this may be necessary)
- trucks lost in the air phase ( you can see this by the changes in the production screen numbers).

Ah, yes...thanks. I guess it is very complicated to obtain an accurate accounting.
