Issue separating higher command units

Post by Sarge11 »

OK trying to help out Hungarians, I know the 2nd army is coming so I transfer a support unit from their 2nd army HQs, to their VIII corp somehow their entire 2nd army get put under group south throwing then way over command capacity. Now Ive waited two turns, but It stills shows up like it was done this turn and cannot undo it. Any help

Scenario?
Turn?
Any Units involved Frozen?
Involved Untis are:
- 2nd Hun. Army?
- VIII Hun. Corps?
- Army Group South?
- SU (which?)

Which unit is meant with "Now Ive waited two turns, but It stills shows up like it was done this turn and cannot undo it."?

sorry campaign game no early end , assigned a SU from a frozen unit of the 2nd Hungarian army to the hungarian VIII corps I believe one of their antiaircraft units, a turn later I discover that the entire Hungarian 2nd army has been assigned to Army Group South. another turn later and its still shows up like it was just done during the present turn so I am unable to detach them. Sorry another turn later and the hungarian 2nd army still shows up under Army Group South and I am unable to detach it.

Still not sure about the turn. The 2nd Army in the Editor shows no "special stuff" which could explain that to me.
Maybe a savegame would help.

How are you transferring a support unit from the 2nd Army HQ if it is frozen?

Yes you can, even if frozen. you can also assign from the rumanian High command their artillery,AA, machine gun SU's to their armies in the field. My issue came up though when I assigned a AA su from the Hungarian 2nd army to the Hungarian viii corps. somehow the entire Hungarian 2nd army ended up under Army group south blowing past command limits and i cannot undo?.

What is the method you are using to assign those units? I can't go to the support unit and assign it, and I haven't been able to go to a HQ and attach it to the higher HQ and then assign a support unit from the frozen HQ. Ideally can you provide a save and tell me exactly how you are assigning the support unit. I'm probably missing a way this can be done. Thanks.

OK for the Rumanians, from the Rumanian High command open bring up one of the support units Anti tank, Machine gun etc. click on the higher command reassigning to one of the rumanian army HQ. following turn reassigning to specific corp hq or from the infantry div assign from your higher hq. for the hungarians I assigned the 2nd hungarian army to army group south, which I realize now was my error that started this feed. once it was assigned i could reassign its support units to AGS and then to the Hungarian viii corps.

I thought you were talking about the Hungarian HQs and support units. There does seem to be something different with the units in the Romanian HQ (they can change HQ) as opposed to the Hungarian HQ where the support units are blocked from changing HQs (at least in my test).

no the Hungarians are different, when i tried to change the SU HQ, the viii corps wasnt there, when i clicked the x to get out of it there were other higher HQ including army group south and i must have assigned the 2nd hungarian army to AGS. this allowed me to reassign the SU to the viii corps the following turn the cavaet being it threw AGS way over command limits and I could not undo it. So for the rumanians fine but I wouldnt do it for the Hungarians.

I don't see how to change the Hungarian 2nd Army HQ to report to another HQ. For me it is marked with an asterisk and is not something that can be changed (as our all the other frozen units and HQs I looked at).

correct, but bring up one of the support units, and you can reassign them to another HQs, the VIII though is not available? so when I X out another box pops up pick another HQ foe 2nd Hungarian army and you see the choices

Sorry, I'm just not getting it. If you can attach a save, and tell me what to click on to change a unit's attachment, I'll try to duplicate it. So far I can't.
