Slush -> [WAD] Unlimited Guards Rifle Corps in late '41/early '42? (5/12/2021 7:15:57 AM)

Hi

Playing as the Soviets in the 1941 GC, I've been waiting for the news update saying that I can create rifle corps.

So for ****s and giggles, I put two guards rifle divisions and a normal rifle division in the same hex and click 'merge'. Much to my surprise that gave me a guards rifle corps in ... probably late December '41.

Naturally, I went on a buildin spree, so 3 turns later I have probably 7 guards rifle corps, while I still cannot build a normal rifle corps. Is this a bug or WAD?

Cheers.

well the first is WAD and fully documented in the manual

More than 2 is clearly a bug and needs to reported as such

Right, thanks. It's with the 1.00.07 patch, and I'm sure the moderators can move this to the bug forum. I can send a save file if required.

Hmm. I could do with learning this trick in my Great War against Herr Loki. I'll send you a cheque if you let me know how to do it[;)]

Well, after little Jim got the coughing disease and got fired by Mr. Gamfield the chimney sweeper, a cheque would sure bring joy, but to be honest, I’ll be damned if I know. I just tried it, and it worked.

If you can figure out how you managed to do it, and/or attach a save so we can make it happen, let us know. There is a limit of 2 Guard corps from 9/41 - 4/42. The limit goes up in May 42, but the non-guards aren't available until June 42.

*sending vodka reserves to Slush to aid in my corps creation against Herr Loki*

Try this one. You should be able to make a Guards Rifle Corps out of the 41st Gds RD, the 24th Gds RD and any non-withdrawing Soviet division.




wpurdom -> RE: Unlimited Guards Rifle Corps in late '41/early '42? (5/15/2021 3:16:22 AM)

Here's a few moves later after I've made a bunch more Guard Corps by 4/5/42




Joel Billings -> RE: Unlimited Guards Rifle Corps in late '41/early '42? (5/17/2021 4:22:57 PM)

My mistake. You can build up to 41 rifle corps starting January 1942, but you can't build any non-guard rifle corps until the OB becomes available in June 42. Usually not an issue but you are trashing the AI in your game and well on your way to victory.




wpurdom -> RE: Unlimited Guards Rifle Corps in late '41/early '42? (5/17/2021 7:49:29 PM)

Yeah, I didn't treat it as a bug, until you said it wasn't WAD. And challenging is much more challenging, and requires slower, more careful play.

Proceeding slowly at a challenging game, but continuing this romp to see if I can conquer Berlin by October 1942.
