A motorized is gaining around 1k trucks and 15+ AP

A tank is gaining aournd .5k trucks and 15 AP

motorized div transforms into infantery div and costs 3 AP to reactivate, the gain is good.

Tanks div transforms into brigade, but the ap costs is as big to reactivate. You have better letting them and building 3 brigades for the same ap price.

Regards

Status: offline 		The number one thing I do is try to minimize truck losses.  I haven't played a GC as soviet yet, but I am never having trouble with trucks in Road to- scenarios.  Do you pay attention to how you move your HQs (particularly those with large supply & fuel dumps)?  Airbases function similarly in that respect.

Disbanding airbases can help.

Just got to wait for your buddy Uncle Sam to come through with the Lend-Lease.

Commencing in August 1941, the Soviet player will receive a fixed amount of supplies and generic vehicles per turn that varies by year as follows:



By 1944, at 4,000 a week you'll be swimming in trucks.

There are some real strange goings on in these Matrix forums of late, I'm starting to think that maybe there has a mass escape of loonies from a instutition somewhere.
