It is Jan 42. Moscow is surrounded by Rifle Brigades. I would like to turn some of those Rifle Brigades into Rifle Divisions. The manual says to highlight the units in question, then press "b" or press the "build unit" button at the top. When I do nothing happens. What have I done wrong?

Are they in the same hex? I think they need to be assigned to the same HQ now too?

Are you using the button to build new units rather than the button to merge units into a bigger unit?

Some mergers can only be done after a certain date too?

According to my notes Rifle Divisions can built after Jun 41 by merging 2 or more Rifle Brigades. The 2 brigades belong to STAVKA, have movement points remaining, and are in supply.

According to Elmo3 in 2013 the date was changed from June 41 to May 42. I think I saw that somewhere ...

I do remember seeing it once, and wondered what a "restricted rifle brigade" was ...
