Move all units, setup your battles, but don't execute battles until you are done moving.

As Lobster said, do the tutorials, read a bit, before playing FITE2. Unless you enjoy restarts, until you get the hang of the system.

OK, this seems the right way. Thanks.

And be careful when you overrun enemy units: it will leave a "time stamp" in the hex (denoted at "round X"). That means that if one of your units with 50% left of its movements point (MP) overruns an enemy unit, all your other units moving through that hex will pay up to 50 % of their MP.

This is especially important on the first turn: don't take a PZ reg and use all its MP to overrun enemy units deep into enemy territory (unless you are certain that no other of your units have to pass through any of the hexes where you performed an overrun). Overrun then move, overrun then move, overrun then move etc.

An example: take the 25th Pz Reg 41 in hex 170,314 and move it North/North West overrunning units along the way until you overrun the Russian unit "164th RR" in hex 167, 307. When that unit has been overrun try to move a German Inf Reg from an adjacent hex into 167, 307. You will now see that the Inf Reg has to pay 13 MP (50 % of its MP) to enter that hex because it has a "round 5" timestamp placed on it caused by the 25th PZ Reg overrunning the hex in its round 5 (there are 10 rounds in a turn, so because the Pz Reg had around 50 % of it MP left after it had overrun the hex, the timestamp will be "round 5").

If all this is old news to you I am sorry for the incoherent ramble

I hope you enjoy the scenario.

If all this is old news to you I am sorry

It's certainly not !! Very useful, thanks ! I definitely need to RTFM in full ! Wasn't even suspecting this [X(]

I'm looking for detailed but not monster scenario, something like clash of armor Kursk 1943 and with lot of events also at least toaw version 3.4 if possible. nothing such in scenario folder

Two really good choices for division level play;

A couple of steps smaller than Fire in The East (divisions, 10km hexes 3.5 day turns)- Russo-German War; https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... 5&t=387726
and
A couple of steps smaller than Russo-German War (divisions, 25km hexes week turns) - TGW 1941-1945; https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... 8#p4211398

You'll have to help the rail repair a bit in TGW. Russo-German War is the most recently updated/plays really well, good PO.
