Historical transfer of Divisions
Posted: Mon Dec 30, 2024 10:01 pm
Historically during longer operations divisions were moved from one army to another, at certain points, depending on necessity.
For instance, in Battleground Italy the 46th BR Inf Div was part of the 8th Army for Operation Husky but later transferred to the 5th Army for the Salerno landings, if I´m not mistaken.
Does the game move them automatically when the appropriate date is reached, or is this up to the player to decide?
I´m starting to play the Battleground Italy scenario and although I haven´t reached that point yet I was wondering how it would work.
Also, I see I have the FF units in Africa that I could use for Husky but I won´t since historically they will not be used until much later in the mainland campaign. Still, the game leaves that option open to the player.
I´d appreciate any answers.
