Question on River Crossing.

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

Question on River Crossing.

Post by DivePac88 »

In the process of opposed river crossing in an offensive operation; is one of the factors taken into account the level of Engineering support available to the Units involved. Or is the time-frame and success of a river crossing operation only dependent on the level of opposition.

Thanks DP.

There's a thread for game questions right under the AAR above. Questions are usually answered promptly there.

Rivers are a bitch. Opps I should say hassel. The Major rivers if defended, (Fort levels) you can be looking across it for while. Mp's play a big roll in bringing the rear units into play to make the attack. So you can't just race across the board and boldly cross without preparing...

I have not seen anything in the manual to indicate engineers speed up river crossings.
