pnzrgnral -> SE Units: GC West Scenarios (1/3/2017 4:12:11 PM)

Ok, diving into the western front GC scenarios for the first time. After the '41 East campaign ends, the option to switch to 42/43 west is given: done. Import core force? Done. Cap on deployable core units, excepting existing SE units: recognized. Now, here's my question: when starting the first 42/43 West scenario, I haven't been able to get a new, annual (for 1942) SE unit. I might have run the scenario start a hundred times, yet no new SE unit. Same goes for the Syracuse scenario, which is the first in 1943 - no SE unit. So, is there a cap on SE units in the West campaigns? Do I need to wait for the 44 or 45 campaigns? What am I missing? Thanks in advance.

There is a 33 % chance to receive a SE unit.

I believe the cap is 3 or 5 units.

Razz, thanks for the input. I had an idea so I checked it out after getting to the 44 West Campaign (and an SE unit was generated). I went back and looked at the 42/43 West Campaign start. In the monologue, it states that the SE cap - for 42 & 43 combined - is four(4) SE units. That's what I missed. The 44 West cap is five(5) SE units. In the East campaigns, 42 would be 5, 43, six, etc. I infer from the 42/43 premise that to play this campaign, you're not only acting as the "fire brigade," to include the reduction in core units and loss of accumulated prestige, but the low level of prestige allowable for the duration of the campaign - plus the reduction of permissible SE acquisitions vis-à-vis East campaigns - make the West front campaign a challenge. Probably to reflect the real-world challenge Germany faced when engaged in a two-front war.
