Also, make sure they all have some movement points. I think you can't convert if any of the brigades are at zero movement.

Flavio was faster :)

It could be Guards Tank Corps is not available yet, but it is still could be a code issue.

Status: offline 		Pavel, just checked this with the 43 scenario: stacking 3 guards tank brigades will convert to a guards tank corps. So it's not a code issue.

Date shouldn't be an issue here either if it's in May 42.

What is the movement status of these 3 brigades? Any of them zeroed out?

Status: offline 		Since I will be gone for the next 5 days, Pavel might want you to send it directly to him. Please PM him (Helpless) to see if he wants you to send it directly to him, or send it to 2by3@2by3games.com and it will eventually get looked at.

Status: offline 		Neal, in the meantime, as was mentioned above, it really is most efficient to mix guards with non guards on a 2 to 1 basis. Never go with 3 guards if you can possibly avoid it, and this is true for any of corps upgrades, not just tank corps.

But you should be able to convert with 3 guards.
