Rumanian TOE upgrade - Obsolete Rifle squads?

Post by chuckbbq »

It's currently April 1942 and my rumanian infantry divisions are upgrading to '42 TOE. Problem is, I have a tremendous amount of obsolete infantry squads in my pool. After the blizzard, the divisions are at 30,40,50% TOE, and don't see any replacements because there aren't any new rifle squads in the pool, but again, plenty of obsolete. Will these rifle squads upgrade? or revert to manpower? What happens to them?

They get distributed to units that do not upgrade :

Security divisions, fortification brigades, machinegun battalions .

Also there is a chance that units that do upgrade ,would not swap their rifle squads , not sure if that was not fixed thou.

Equipment sent to pool will set free the associated manpower.
The old rifle squads will be scrapped after one year, most units should have upgraded by then.

The rifle squads due convert just that they do it very slowly.

you can press the figure 45 next to new rifle squads and see how many squads have converted already .

in my last game it was at a rate of 1000/month .

It's a problem that hopefully will be better with the next patch. As long as there are some units that need an obsolete element, they take a year to start scrapping. try to make sure everyone upgrades if possible. When there is no demand they start scrapping I believe. it is a pain in the nether-regions, but it is worse for the Soviets with the summer rifle squad upgrade!
