[solved]how to transport a motorized infantrie without any fuel back?

Post by VoodooDog »

i just scrapped every truck and now they walk back through the desert, but there has to be a better way, right?
they where really far out and i think replacements from the shq would never have reached them.

Select the unit, then Unit Admin > Downgrade. You can choose a formation without transport.

They still move as leg infantry.

The spirit of Napoleon feels your pain.

If some of your units nearby have fuel and supplies, I do not know a way to cross-level supplies between units.

The next round equipment and troops are returned to the SHQ to satisfy the new OOB--and replacements are requested if needed for the new formation.

See the Manual Section 5.10.10.2, Upgrading and Downgrading Formations.

As an aside, Trucks are used in Motorized Formations. APC's are used in Mechanized formations.
