I havent spotted anything in threads on this but what do all of those Construction units sat in the German AG HQs do?

I'm at Dec 1942 and each HQ has about 12-15 construction units, which even with a support level of 0, dont seem to want to be deployed to lower HQs. Are they actually doing something in background that I'm not aware of? Should I disband them to increase my manpower pool?

Use them for constructin fortifications. Never ever disband them!! I usually keep every corps filled with two cons battalions, it speeds up construction very nicely.

How do you get the units out of the AG HQs and into the Corps HQs? Cant find a transfer or assign option for them?

Check to see if your AG HQ's are set to Locked. If they are then they won't transfer construction units out to other HQ's. See 7.6.3.3 for details.

Zipping it just puts it in a format the forums will accept. No idea about the error message.

Edit - Sent you my email address so you can send it to me.
