Yes, but my point would be that would assume the type of heavy casualties that were incurred historically. In a short term scenario that would be ok. But in a scenario that can be played quite differently from the historical situation, where the Axis player can choose not to bash his units to pieces, I feel that is imposing a restriction on the player. The last time this discussion came up, I gave a few examples to stretch the point. In a Market Garden scenario, the 1st Airborne is automatically withdrawn on the historical date that it surrendered. I understand the principal, but why should that be in a scenario where the player has the opportunity to do better than history? Should the entire 6th German Army be withdrawn by event on February 3rd, 1943 because they surrendered historically?ORIGINAL: Silvanski

18th Artillery Division- It's just that for it to be included one has to assume all the heavy casualty conditions that were the cause for its' creation.
An event chain like this can be set, only if the 18th Pz Div is destroyed, the 18th Arty Div appears - with an xx turn delay
On the other hand, 10th Panzer Division is sent to North Africa historically, and in the scenario it does go. That's an influence of another front that the player has no control over, so it should happen. Each situation should be looked at individually to determine what the effect should be.
That's my rant, Thanks!
