Do we have any markers to move from Defensive to Offensive Ormster?

Why can't I break down 4-4 INF in SE Poland? Would it be possible if I didn't have 2-3 INF div in pool?

Edit: I can't break any units in SE Poland.

Nope. All USSR markers are offensive.

You need a 5 strength corps or stronger to break down into those divisions.

The other stacks will become overstacked if you break down a corps in those hexes.

Is there a rule why I can break 5 strength INF into 2-3 INF div and 1-4 INF div, but not into 1-4 INF div and 2-5 MOT div?

This is hard after playing with unlimited break down [8|]

Edit 2: Not that I can think of at the moment.

I think the trouble is that the 1-4 is already selected so the program stops you from selecting the same division twice. And selecting two 2 strength divisions at the same time is also forbidden due to high total of division factors. See if you can cancel the attempt and try again. Otherwise this seems like a bug.

It was not possible, only possibility was 2-3 INF div and 1-4 INF div. No problem. But should I report this?

Yes. I think you should. Either it is a bug, or we could get a explanation.

Allies wins the initiative.

Both USA and USSR insist that Allies go first.

And nice weather except the monsoon storms over southern China.

Have you guys gotten the save? Spam filter seems to be blocking it. [:(]

Yes. I have it. I e-mailed back to confirm but maybe that is blocked too [:(]

Here follows a broadcast from the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

“My beloved Peoples of the Soviet Union. You know me as your happy-go-lucky-cheekie-chappie-salt –of-the-earth type of boy-next-door leader. Indeed here is a reminder of the face that you have come to know and love as I spread my benevolent, paternal leadership upon my happy peoples; my happy face":

Happy Face

....."But in the last few months my happy face has been seen less and less. Even though I have had the enormous pleasure of agreeing to accept the requests (nay pleading) by the Finns, the Poles, the Baltic peoples and those of Bessarabia & Northern Bukovina to be allowed to join the Soviet Union, my joy at helping these people has been soured by the actions of the Emperor of Imperial Japan.

The Emperor has continually got up my grill an’ ****. First he threw a 6 or something and badly wounded my good friend MaoTseTung then, more recently, he has been really annoying. I can’t actually remember why, but I am sure it was something serious. Anyway the point is, I now wear my sad face. As a result, I must announce that a state of war exists between our two countries".
