Hello All!

I find it a bit annoying that the game doesn�t show you unit when unit renames occur (outside of the editor, anyways), especially when some of them have a pretty dramatic impact on Soviet forces. So, I decided to compile a list of the important ones, along with some other key TOE changes and disbands.

Shock Armies:

19th Army → (t 21)
26th Army → (t 25)
60th Army → (t 27)
27th Army → (t 27)
10th Reserve Army → (t 77)

Guards Armies:

2nd Reserve Army → (t 60)
24th Army → (t 87)
21st Army → (t 96)
1st Reserve Army → (t 54) 64th Army → (t 96)
7th Reserve Army → (t 54) 62nd Army → (t 96)
7th Army → (t 187)
52nd Rifle Corps → (t 3) 30th Army → (t 98)
16th Army → (t 98)

Individual Units:

1st Mech Div → 1st Mot Div (t 14)
7th NKVD Detachment → 1st NKVD Rifle Div (t 14)
16th NKVD Detachment → (t 25) 8th NKVD Division (motorized) → 63rd Rifle Division (t 54)

Unit Groups:

Tank Divisions → Tank Brigades (t 32)
Antitank Brigades disband (t 32)
Pro tip: guards antitank brigades apparently don�t disband. I�m not sure how feasible it is to even get one to guards status in a head-to-head game, but man is that a lot of guns to slap on a rifle or tank corps. I�ll be seeing how they perform in the long term in my current game against the AI.

Corps Artillery Regiments TOE overhaul (t 30? (start of Jan 42))
corps artillery pull a 180 and switch from mostly heavy artillery(122 field guns and 155 gun-howitzers) to light artillery (122 howitzers and 76.2s)

I�m sure I�ve missed a few notable ones; feel free to post any suggestions and I�ll add them on.

Thanks, that�s a useful list.

Anyone know the turns that either side get bonus AP? I thought in WitE it was with new Fronts, but that doesn�t seem to be the case anymore.

Thanks, Loki,

On the subject of renames. I recall the Front renames/arrivals being in the WitE manual but my search of the WitE2 ebook isn�t helping me find a similar list.

Anyone have that compiled or know where to look?
