Is this a bug.......... Thanks.

Be happy, this gives you additional manpower from men returning to duty

Thanks Morvael.
I appreciate all the time and hard work that you put into these (WITE and WITW) games.

More like WitE only, but thanks
Disabled pool is an important source of manpower for German player at this stage of war, and playing from 1941 you would have 1M+ men there, so it's good that the scenario starting in 43 gives you automatically some men in the disabled pool.

Those losses make no sense to me. I can see how they could be created on T2 from the T1 pockets, but how could there be so many shatters?

i understand some of the terminology, like turn 2 and turn 1 etc, but what does shatters mean? same as destroyed? as it's not a word i seem to know, unless it short for shattered maybe, and yes there was a few of them, i moved all the units i could to attack the Russians, and i engaged them with overwhelming force in nearly all engagements, most just surrendered, some retreated, but not that many...
moved as fast as i could and as deep as i could in one turn, turn 2 was a lot better tbh, so thought i'd post 1 then update to latest version and compare and see the difference...
my aim and plan was to take out as much command and control eg HQ as i could on turn 1 and airfields,but ended up doing more armour than i thought i would, that was a turn 2 objective...
couldn't remember how to see how much supply and fuel i got, as i captured loads, and i mean loads, and i was at turn 3 objectives almost on turn 1 so my best start in this battle, only reason to post it tbh,never played past 5 up to yet, i just keep playing the first 5 or so turns, as even after a few years i never really get the mechanics of the game enough to play through, but will re learn and finish one, one day...

Sorry Morvael, thought you were a playtester for WITW as well.

Shattered means that the defending unit has essentially dissolved due to low morale/TOE/experience and is no longer a combat unit. Essentially a surrender type of result that does not require isolation status first.

I was, being quite active last summer, before I got involved in fixing WitE. Found a dozen of bugs at that time, helped a bit with Polish forces and tiny bits of code, but this is all incomparable with the work done on WitE...
