assigning units to HQs

Post by larryfulkerson »

Here's me trying to assign the 85th Rifle Division to the 11th Mech Corps. Only I can't because it's not one of the possible HQ's to choose from. What gives?

Perhaps it is because the HQ is isolated?

Interesting that you would bother to screw around with the HQ assignments, let alone actually clicking and moving those units :)

Hi Larry, it is probably because you don't have enough APs to show that HQ's cost to reassign. All of the HQ's listed are upper level HQ's so the cost to reassign is a bit less. If the unadjusted cost to reassign is greater than what you have in your AP pool, the game will filter out the unavailable HQs.

Hi Larry,
Hey there JaMiAM dude. Like old time again. Long time no hear from. I understand why NOW. This game is great.

Yeah, I know all that, but I had something like 36 AP's left and HQ reassignments don't cost all that much.

As I understand it ( I'm still new at this although with two ongoing PBEM's I'm learning new stuff every day ) the HQ a unit belongs to can lend it's support squads in combats and besides I'm an old fashioned kind of guy and like to have "realism" in the games I play...so I bother to try to have each and every division assigned to some HQ or another. Sometimes I have calvary Divisions in with foot dudes, and tanks in with calvary etc. but I try to have everybody belong to somebody. Maybe I'm just anal retentive or something. Oooops....we're not supposed to say retentive. Maybe I'm OCD. Maybe it's like putting perfume on a pig but I like to do it.
