I have approximately 100 tank brigades/regiments/battalions, all directly attached to STAVKA but somehow I cannot disband them. They dont have a withdraw date and the front is 6 or more hexes away from moscow. I dont know whats the problem here sadly.
I'd guess too close to enemy for disband or sending to reserve. Can you merge 2 of them into one? OR do you have a HQ further east that you can transfer them to and disband them there?

Soviets had limited truck production and LL deliveries were not that large in 1942 but that gets better in 43 only to expand even more in 44.
Conserve your trucks until you get enough, you might even want to send some truck-heavy units to reserve

v01.01.15 – 12th October 2021
New Features and Rule Changes
• For a unit on the map to disband or be sent to a theater box, it must now be more than 8 hexes from enemy units. To be able to send a unit to a TB, it must also be on a connected rail hex. Other limitations/restrictions re disbanding and transferring to a theater box remain unchanged.

Thanks! Should refer to the living manual rather than the one that comes with the game in that case! To those asking if i can merge, i am talking about offmap support brigades. Not division level

Some pilots are listed as captured. Are there any chances that they might run from imprisonment?

Erik has spoken about finland and caucasus scenarios last year. Do we have information about a release date or more alternative scenarios? Maybe in the west or north africa? :-)

I can not transfer Air Units from the reserve to the map. Only transfer to the other TBs possible.
How to solve this? Is it a bug, or do I miss something?

Right click on an airbase on map, to bring them from reserve. It also got me stomped for a while :)

When transport ships can be sunk? What are the needed conditions for it?
I remember transferring troops from Germany to Leningrad which is under my control and out of nowhere boom, some ships destroyed, men lost. There was no Soviet interdiction at all!

What does this mean in terms of production? Losses vs produced or what?

This is the number of aircraft that your air groups do not have enough to fill completely.
Sorry, i use an online translator :(

airframes (AF) and chassis (CH) are converted to particular planes or vehicles

for example you can have panther chassis that are used for panther tanks and Jagdpanther

Where do I find the supply consumption of air units?

The LR has the overall amount (for the LW), but I'd be interested in finding out details of each AOG etc

I just started playing the game and reading manual, watching tutorials etc but somehow I couldn't find the answer of my question. It should be very easy thing but I really couldn't manage to find it anywhere xD What is the liquid icon below the army readiness icon when we are viewing ground units. It also pops up while we try to move our troops somewhere.

liquid icon obviously means tears that soldiers are dropping during a march! You can think of it as a fatigue :)
