I wanted to find out how to improve morale gain for ground units. I thought that putting them in refit, no rest being available, would do something and originally it did provided the unit's morale was below 50.

A changes made in v1.05.18 - September 6, 2011 altered this to:-
Changed rule so that the morale gain from refit when under 50 morale is only gained when the unit in refit is at least 10 hexes from a supplied enemy unit (similar to the current gain if less than morale 50 and 10 or more hexes from enemy unit).

Another change made in v1.07.10 - August 12, 2013 further altered it to:-
Possible morale gains for a unit being at least 10 hexes from an enemy unit (in refit or not) will now only happen if the unit's morale is below its national morale, or 50, whichever is lowest. Note it is possible to receive up to 0-2 morale points from this when not in refit mode, and 0-4 points when in refit mode (this has not changed).

This last change seems to have nullified the refit bonus.

I think these are the current rules governing morale gain.

'The unit is in a very good supply and support situation and its morale is less than 75. If Die (75) is greater than the unit's morale than a gain for this situation is possible.

Morale gain for a unit at least 10 hexes from an enemy unit (in refit or not) will only happen if the unit's morale is below its national morale, or 50, whichever is lowest. Note it is possible to receive up to 0-2 morale points from this when not in refit mode, and 0-4 points when in refit mode (this has not changed).

Units do not gain morale while routed. Units may only gain morale outside of combat if their morale is less than 10 points above their national morale, or less than 50, whichever is greater.

If a unit's morale is below its national morale it has a 10% chance of recovering as much as 10% of the national morale but not more than the country's national morale.

Units that are below 40 automatically gain one morale point in the logistics phase.'

Have I got this right?
