Destroyed Axis Support Units - 1/25/2011 3:23:59 PM

I have read the manual and see/understand the mechanics of regular destroyed units. However, I did not see anything in relation to destroyed Axis support units.

Are they lost entirely?

Are they automatically rebuilt?

Do I need to do something to get them back?

Thanks in advance.

If attached to a unit, they come back with the unit. And since you cannot kill HQ's, I would say you are good to go. They should still be attached to the unit when it returns.

Some were attached to the combat unit and in the case of the Rumanians they were attached to the Corps HQ. In either case the parent unit was not detroyed, just the support unit (MG BN/Pioneers/Hwz Bat) showed up in the casualty report.

Oh, not sure about that one. I will watch for that and see what is up.

German support units rebuild at OKH. I don't think Axis allies support units rebuild, the same as their regular units.

and related to this, when you lose an Axis support unit (but not the unit its attached to) is there a way to find out from which corps/div it has been lost from?

Probably have to do it the hard way; click through the battle icons to find where it died.

I tried that but i couldnt even find a battle icon (playing Road to leningrad against Sov AI which rarely attacks anyway).
