I have some German units rebuilt.
When they start at the edge of the map the have max TOE at 50%.
I set it to 100% and make them refit.
Will they ever reach 100% or they will be limited at a certain percentage?
Thanks in advance.

It started at 50% and three,not sure exactly,turns later it is at 71.
So I will wait to see if it reaches 100.

Status: offline 		Have you looked at manpower and arms in your pool? In general, units set to 100% refit on a railhead will build up to 100% if all other units are set to "ready". What you want to do though is flow replacements to your high morale units on critical parts of the front, not low morale units at home....

My suggestion is you set them at low TOE (50%) and refit to regain morale up to national morale...

Status: offline 		Thank you both very much for the replies.
The question was made because I was wondering if it was worth it
to wait for them to reach 100,so then I could sent them to front lines.
Thank you for the strategy tips also.

With my existing units (as German) I started reducing all of their TOE % sometime in 1941 in anticipation of reduced replacements (I'm sure I read that advice from someone). I put many of the divisions at 80 or so. But within each Corps, especially the important ones, I'd pick one division to be at 90 or 95 and set it to Refit. So in theory that is my strong division within the Corps. Seems to work as intended, with my strategy.

I'd say that's a really good method to use :)

Usually you have more than enough replacements to satisfy one divisions needs, so it should be OK to put a group of most important divisions to refit, and they'll get all the replacements they can receive (the leader needs to pass some checks to get more replacements, distance to railhead also plays a role here).

So instead of flat across the board ToE settings I would recommend directing them to where they are most needed, or better where they will be most experienced first.
