if you are using the AI assist, set Sevastopol as the target port


That sounds like the problem. Where/when do I do that?

Status: offline 		Using AI air assist, I still want to handle aircraft upgrades. I set all my air groups on manual upgrade, but each turn they revert to auto. Is that working as designed?

Same thing with air groups that I set to fly night only, they revert back to day and night?

Is it possible to directly air attack a depot to destroy some of the freight?

yes, the engineering value is reduced by the ground conditions so it may need more than 1 to repair the hex. its the same reason why the FBD/NKPS repair costs can be over 1 on some turns

Its claimed that interdiction/railyard bombing will destroy some stored freight, not sure how much and you can't really track this.

But yes, for practical purposes a HQ protects the depot's processing capacity against the impact of air strikes (unless it is operating near to 100% which is rare)

Why should I put my combat support units in another hq than in an Corps hq (Type 4)? They won't take part in a fight if I see it correctly. I use the automatic attachment. Why should I put OKH to support level above 0?

Apparently you have Air Assistance turned on. The computer removes your aviation directives and creates its own. You need to turn off automatic Air Assistance and do not manually press it after creating your air directives.

Your support combat units will move to corps headquarters and will remain in army or Army Group headquarters only if they are redundant and there is no room for them in corps headquarters.

The Soviet player should have a bit of a conveyor belt with those that have taken heavy losses back in Stavka to refit and fresh ones sent out to replace in the front line formations

If you build it on a bare rail hex a lvl 1 Railyard has to be build which uses up spare resources. I try to build depots on railyards lvl 1+

If the railyard (for railyards 2+) is damaged doesn't that reduce the "trains" component of the logistics and so reduce new freight moved within 30 hexes as well?

Status: offline 		yes. but I'd suggest a really marginal effect. Most freight/trains is NSS-depot so its the railyards there that drive the system. A front line level 2 railyard helps for unit moves and local depot-depot freight, so not to be ignored but its not something you'd miss.

Mainly as the closer to the front you go, there is less of this secondary rail movement

Status: offline 		Question on captured tanks!

So the Germans get this unit



And the logi report says this



But as far as I have been able to determine the POOL of captured T-34s does not decrease, while the T-34B 747(r) pool increases with 1 per turn.

So the question: Do you really need captured T-34s to acquire the T-34B 747(r), or is this just a simulated process where in fact they are produced regardless?

Tnx.

some are in the reinforcement schedule but you may need to use the editor to track them all

I put together a list of key renames over in the War Room section, link below:
https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=5054364

Tank Armies, IIRC, all arrive as-is, and can therefore be seen in the reinforcements list.

it takes a few turns (5 I think?) before you can manually upgrade to a new aircraft model. It looks like the F4s have only been in production for 3 so far, so if you wait a couple more turns, they should show up normally.

I have a 108 Tiger I tanks in the pool, and 3 Heavy Pz Bn in Axis Reserve that have taken forever to fill up with Tiger tanks, yet there has been plenty in the pool. I thought units in Axis Reserve received replacement equipment over everything else. What is causing the problem, or is there some kind of max number of pieces of equipment you can receive at a time?

well you've won in terms of the game so I guess it doesn't really matter?

but as far as I know, the resources just get added to the pools on arrival
