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).

Transport planes not available...

Post by Hoggorm »

Hi,

I play the Road to Leningrad scenario and would like to fly some supplies and fuel to some far ahead motorized units.

For some reason, I get the message that no transport planes are available, even though I have at least 39 + 32 Ju52 with no (0%) flow missions in at least one airbase.

Why do I get this message?

It is currently 8 hexes from the railhead and have from 87-98% supply. I assume it is the Ju52 aircraft that do the airlift?
