Playing Soviets...I get some rail repair units and place them on the red rail hexes but can't figure out how to make them repair the track. Also, I get divisions "unready" and I change status to "refit"...but nothing ever happens to change from "refit" How do I get those units fit for combat? Any help much appreciated.

Your red rail hex you are trying to repair is next to a connected green rail hex? If not you need to do so. Once that happens you click on the counter in the top right corner the blue txt.

Refitting can take several to many turns depending on location & movement of refitting units and leader admin ratings. Always refit as far from the front as you can - 15 hexes or better works great. Keep related HQ unit within 5 hexes. Hexes should be supplied rail hexes (even better if cities or towns. Assign a HHQ leader with a 6 or better admin & morale ratings. Don't move units unless absolutely necessary.
