HQ build up or just sit in place?

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

HQ build up or just sit in place?

Post by CapAndGown »

It is turn 4 and my panzers from PZG2 are sitting on the west side of the Dnepr with 15, 16, 19, and 25 MPs. The infantry is just about to catch up. (3 corps from 4th army just arrived on the west bank of the Dnepr.) Should I use HQ build up, or just have the panzers sit there and stock up normally? Does supply build up slower if a unit is in contact with the enemy vs out of contact?

Not entirely sure of your tactical situation but go for HQBU, time is of the essence.

Note : HQBU is not allowed when more than 20 hexes or 80 MP from the rail network at the moment the HQBU is ordered. To participate in a HQBU, HQs and units must have at least 25% of their MP remaining but they do not get a movement point penalty due failed leader check. This means they can be moved prior to the order being given
Molotov : This we did not deserve.

Foch : This is not peace. This is a 20 year armistice.

C'est la guerre aérienne
