As Soviet player I occasionally get a notification (in the "Logistic Phase Report") of German units arriving. The ones I remember:
- turn 52: 210 Stug Ab arrived at 180,170
- turn 56: 9th Replacement Panzer Ba. arrived at 180,170
(180,170 is west Berlin).

Those messages showed as the last line in the Arrival list.

Not really a problem for playing the game, just a bit odd.

Do you have any saves just before these arrivals and just after?

No, it is a PBEM++ game. But I got the message about the 210 Stug in both in this game and in a game against the AI in the Operation Typhoon scenario (obviously in another turn, but at the same date). Got the message first in the Typhoon scnario, didn't think much of it, then got it again in the current game - still didn't report it, as it was just one unit.
Now got it for another unit as well, so I thought I make notice of it.

Odd. Next time that happens, if you can, ask your opponent if that unit showed arrived on his prior turn. Also,email me at jabgamer@2by3games.com and let me know that this happened, what the unit was, who your opponent is in the game, and what turn you saw it. I'll try to download the saves going back and see what I can find out. It could be one of the routines that determines where a unit gets placed on the map will put the info in the wrong logistics report. It could be nothing, or it could be a sign of something more insidious. Thanks.
