Reinforcement Cards

I have been pushing my Armee level (Ger) HQs forward, trying to keep them in decent range of their korps. But it occurs that there may be some game function with the reinforcement cards that I will be missing. The cards say sent to nearest HQ within range. Can these cards be outrun?

Thanks for any help here in advance.

Also, as a wish list item, it would be nice if the cards identified where the reinforcements will come in...I know the cards give a town name, but a "yellow" identifier on the map would be nice.

I think you're referring to replacements. These are placed in the highest ranking HQ closest to the supply source. The AI then distributes them to the HQ's subordinate units. So to answer your question, no they can't be outrun.

Some scenarios get tricky when there is more than one HQ of the highest level, such as two corps HQs. Then the closest corps HQ gets all the replacements and the other corps gets none. To spread out the replacements the player has to shuttle a corps HQ closer to the supply source so it will get its share.

Thanks for the information. The range bit had me worried.
