Losses but no combat

Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: The German-Soviet War 1941-1945 is a turn-based World War II strategy game stretching across the entire Eastern Front. Gamers can engage in an epic campaign, including division-sized battles with realistic and historical terrain, weather, orders of battle, logistics and combat results.

The critically and fan-acclaimed Eastern Front mega-game Gary Grigsby’s War in the East just got bigger and better with Gary Grigsby’s War in the East: Don to the Danube! This expansion to the award-winning War in the East comes with a wide array of later war scenarios ranging from short but intense 6 turn bouts like the Battle for Kharkov (1942) to immense 37-turn engagements taking place across multiple nations like Drama on the Danube (Summer 1944 – Spring 1945).

Losses but no combat

Post by Chris21wen »

Just had a turn were no combat took place and the Soviets suffered men 20K plus loss and men killed 6K, the Germans suffered nothing. I post a pic but closed the report and now I can't get it back.

Question is, why. Is it an abstracted view of attrition? Do the Germans suffer the same but it's hidden due to FOW?

This is frontline attrition. Each player can only see his own at start of turn, the other is seen as having lost 0, but don't worry - they suffer too (although due to better quality Germans suffer less than Soviets in relation to their force size).

As I thought. Thanks.
