Greyhunterlp -> Where are my replacements? (8/19/2009 7:55:40 AM)

Hi, just getting into the game, and I'm trying out Prussia.

I've finished a poorly lead war with France, and have had most of my Divisions badly mauled.

It's now been at least 6 months, and none of my units have seen a single man in replacements, my pool says it has men in it, but I'm not seeing any moving out to the Units, even though they are in the Brandenburg province.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

I'm not the expert here, but..
If units are not in supply they won't get any replacements-even if some are available. You can have units in the city, but they cannot be on "forage", they must be on "supply" to receive replacements. Units in the field must be supplied from a depot-and on supply orders rather than forage.

I had the same situation with Turkey-units that successfully foraged still did not come up to strength. As soon as I put them on supply, they received what they were supposed to in replacements.

Again, I'm not the CoG Wizard, but that is how I fixed the problem.

Try it out.

As 06 Maestro says you need a supply depot. Without it troops are on forage and cannot receive replacements. The depot provides supply/replacements to your troops in the same province and adjacent provinces, except for those high attrition provinces (marked with a red cross) which are forage only. To supply troops further afield you need to have a chain of supply depots running back to a supply source city under your control and ownership. These cities are marked by a circle with the colour of the owning nation. Diplomatically powers can also agree by treaty to use each others supply depots.

Replacements are drawn from your draft pool which you control through the Economy screen. There you determine the age range and training period for draftees and the number selected for draft, this also influences the morale of your newly trained replacements; the longer the training period the better their morale. Drafts first move into the training pool and when trained move into the draft pool. The pools are topped up by MEN drawn from your population in accordance with your selected level. (Note: this describes the Advanced Economy process).

Available replacements are issued in accordance with a priority, where home supplied units receive more than supplied units in enemy territory.

Details of replacements and changes to draft/training pool numbers are shown in the Supply report.

Pressing D turns a depot on/off in a province.

Thanks, that's sorted it, I must have missed that in the Manual. I was wondering what I was doing wrong.

I understood everything but how the troops got the the Divisions. now I can refill them, just in time for a war with Russia.
hmm, I see a restart coming up...

The patch (see the readme) introduced the restriction of supply source status to certain provinces and added more high attrition provinces shown by the red cross.
