HQ buildup

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).

HQ buildup

Post by generalfrommel »

I just started playing this game again after a bit of a hiatus and I've run into a problem: Can someone please explain to me what has happened to the HQ buildup button? It doesn't seem to be where it used to be, in the lower right part of the panel of the HQ unit display. I assume buildup is still allowed - i don't see anything in the patch notes to say otherwise.

thanks,
Gen. Frommel

Thank you. How close to a railhead do you need to be?

Thanks. My manual must be outdated because it doesn't mention the 20 MP limit.
