It is late April in my game and I have had a number of these convoys arrive. One convoy brought 54 Lee tanks which I see are added to the pool. I assume that my Indian armor units will start to absorb these tanks when the May 42 production date is hit. However, I have had at least three convoys arrive carrying Matilda tanks. Yet, I seen none of these tanks in the pool. As far as I can see, the only units that take matildas are Anzac, yet none of my Aussie tank units have taken any matildas. Anybody know where they have gone of to? I should have at least 60 to 80 matilda tanks in the pool or with my units by now.

there are none in the pool so what does it matter if he has supplies or replacements on? If none went into his units and none are in the pool but there were some coming in with convoys, where did they go?

I think the cavalry squadrons only take armored cars and light tanks. I have reiviewed my Austrailian units and I see about 10 matilda tanks in all of them. They have been this way for two months or so. I only have replacments turned on for two tank regiments as they are the ones I want to build up first. One is in Sidney with over 100k of supply. Both of these units have 5 or 6 matildas at the moment but I have had at least two matilda carrying convoys arrive since I turned replacments on for them and I still can't see the matildas anywhere. What about some of you guys who are further along in the game? Do you see your Aussie units taking matildas? I am playing scen 2.

When I get a turn this afternoon, I will do a careful check of all Aussie tank and motorized untis but I am pretty sure about their status. Unlike the lee/grants the matildas carried by the convoys have never shown up in the replacement pool either.

If you use WitP tracker it can make hunting down the devices pretty easy.

Never mind. On my April 29th turn, i just checked the pools and I now have 23 matildas in the pool, and the two Aussie tank regiments that I have set replacements on have just added a few tanks. So my tanks are now showing up. Seems to be OK. Got a convoy arriving in 9 days with 50 grant/lees and 50 matildas. I can't wait.
