When/how does the Axis get transport aircraft?

Thanks

In case Blue long you get one unit and I usually build a second. In trappen... you have to build a lot of units like the Ju52s.

On first turn, I make sure to build a heavy artillery, a German Corp, and the Ju52 unit.

All the replacements go through OKH so you can always see what you have by looking there and possibly building units to handle the specific type of reinforcement.



I hope this helps????/

What do you mean a corps - an HQ??

Yes you can HQ's. The Germans must be short one or two at start I am guessing.

What others does the Axis need to build in TJ?

Thanx

compare the two OOBs, Trapp and Case Blue Long.

You will need to build corps to accommodate the influx of divisions. Only build one at a time or they will all come online together. You will need two heavy artillery units. Again, build one at a time. Build a transport air unit. Don't forget to have enough engineers, build as needed. Don't get caught without them.

Do not play with Axis Minor rules. Just a head ache and you are not given enough minor officers and to build the number of corps needed it takes forever.

In general if you see some troop type building up in your OKH and not being requested by subordinate units its time to build a new unit from scratch that needs these type of troops.

I agree this is a bit a rough edge of the game, but there is a handy PDF OOB guide included that you can consult to see which type of formation will request which troops.

Best,
