OK just how much Soviet troops do I get back?

Post by freeboy »

My oponent did not race forward, BUT he is now methodically reducing a large area of the center along with something like 70 divisions.. these are mostly infantry, with a few artiller and hq... will they all come back? How bad is this? It is cloe to the first fall rains... at least he is not in Len, Smolensk or Korsun yet!
It is a toug hcall as Soviet, run away? or fight and perhaps get clocked, he is not strong every where, but after resting his better units they cut through me like a hot knife in a butter dish in summer!

If they are completely cut-off from supply when they evaporate, you get nothing back.

No, no, no. You do just loose the equipment. I didn't mean to indicate that you lost the units, but the units will only reconstitue (reappear) if you have the equipment to fill 2/3s of the first slot of equipment (usually some sort of rifle squad). So, while your units will reconstitue, they could reconstitute very slowly after a major loss like that.

Well some are slipping out of course, some are dieing a brave death at Kiev, and I made it full knowing I would take losses to save KArkov and Lenn and Smolenssk, maybe... before the fall rains. I have TONS of low supply tank regiments, if they would just refill there supply quicker, but even not moving on arail they are slow to recover! My oponent has also not met the brave souls defending Crimia.. so I feel good aboutthat, but bad about the upcoming "letters to home"

I also released the Sov Siberian air force as my oponenet was getting great gains in the forest between M and L... only real place I was weak, we will see how the fair... many are really really poor quality! coming in at 40% proficiency, ouch.
