I cannot replace my light tanks (or artillery) with a new model.

The units are in the capital together with the replacements in the SHQ (new model), plenty of logistics.

When I manually order to replace the old models, there is no choice for a new model, so I cannot (mass) replace. The quality of the new model is Regular, the formation is set to accept all qualities. In the Reinforments screen the new models are shown to be present for the light tanks, but not in the replacement screen.

So I tried setting the old models to Obsolete, the new model is set to Regular, next turn all my units were empty. The SHQ contained both the old and the new models, the reinforcement screen showed the sum of them to be present, but nothing entered the units. Now I can't even order a replacement, because there is nothing to replace.

This is a multiplayer game started as #81, 1.06.05, but we have upgraded to 1.07.02. One player is mentioned as using version 107, two players as 1.07.02, and one as 1.07.01

I have a save-game that I can send, together with the password.

Obsolete causes a compelte recall. It is forced disallow for all units in the field. Never use it unless you really know what you are doing!

Instead:
Set the old equipment to low Quality.
Set low Quality to tolelrated.

Note that 1.07.02 changed it so that you no longer need to manuall replace:
"-When tolerated equipment is switched for better equipment during replacement troops phase it keeps the soldiers (the xp, rdn, mor) where they are and only switches the equipment."

You still have to build the replacements and scrap the returned stuff, but it is some progress at least!
