Soviet Tank Army Size

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).

Soviet Tank Army Size

Post by dereck »

I could swear I saw something - someplace - where while the command capacity for a Soviet Combined Arms Army is 24 that for a Soviet Tank Army it was 16 or 18?

Can someone confirm or deny this and if it IS true whether it is anyplace in the rule manual (which I may be overlooking)?

Thanks

Regular Tank Army has CP 15, but for Guards Tank Army this is increased to 16. This was added in a patch.

Do I have the increase in capacity correct or don't they have increases?

That is original data from the manual which since changed.

v1.05.59 - January 31, 2012
Stavka and OKH now have infinite command capacity (they will never be considered overloaded). This is shown on screen as a command limit of 999.
Soviet Army Command Capacity is changed as follows: 6/41-8/41 - 24 9/41-3/42 - 21 4/42-9/45 - 18
Soviet Tank Army Command Capacity is changed to 15.

Okay that brings up another question.

In the chart I had been using the Front capacity was 3x the Army capacity. Has the Front capacity changed or has it remained 72/81/90?
