Bamilus -> Turn 12 Axis Panzer Reinforcements (4/12/2021 4:37:49 PM)

So, I've tried both ways with this and am struggling to figure out which one is better. I get this question is highly contextual, but I'll ask anyways.

When the Axis get the 2nd and 5th Panzer Divisions on Turn 12, is it best to use tactical movement to get them to AGS or use railway (at least part of the way)? I'm not sure what's worse: the wear and tear on the ground elements and trucks using tactical MP (plus delay in getting to the front lines), or using an insane amount of rail capacity that will negatively impact supply for probably 2-3 turns.

Infantry divisions and smaller units I have no issues with railing at least part of the way. I can seem to keep the rail capacity from being overwhelmed, but these are massive divisions with huge capacity. Just curious how people typically handle these.

Whenever possible, I only use the railroad! Especially at a great distance! If you move a tank division under your own power, then you will have to restore its combat effectiveness! And by rail, she will come in full combat readiness and will be able to seriously help! I think this is more important than a slight decrease in the amount of supply in this section! Especially if you have a superdepo!

I would agree with Malyhin, I would also use railroad to bring them to the front. I think, in my perspective, limited situations I wouldn't that would involve a very stressed frontline for supply issues that if there was even the slightest disruption it could cause the line to break.

I use the railroad up to the last large railyard before the front. In my AAR I was sending them to 1 PG and routed them through Hungary and Rumania to lessen the strain on the German railnet.

Thanks for the responses, and yea Carl that's what I've been doing to when I send units to AGS. Figure the Hungarians and Romanians won't care much!
