German/Soviet Boarder

[Titan]

Cant see in the manual anywhere but how many units does Germany need to maintain on this boarder?

The '39 Strategy guide says:

Axis Units Required in the East
To prevent the USSR from entering the war before the Axis are ready to fight them, Axis
commanders should ensure that the following criteria are met:

From January 1940 2 Axis units are needed within 10 hexes of Warsaw.
Failure to meet this requirement will swing the USSR by 2% towards the Allies every turn.

From January 1941 4 Axis units are needed within 10 hexes of Warsaw.
Failure to meet this requirement will swing the USSR by 2% towards the Allies every turn.

Both the criteria listed above are cumulative, so from January 1941 if there were less than 2 units within 10 hexes of Warsaw, then the USSR would swing by 4% towards the Allies.

While the above require a minimum number of Axis units to be in the east, the following requires that there aren't an excessive number of Axis units present:
From January 1940
If there are more than 18 Axis units within 10 hexes of Warsaw, then the USSR will have a 50% chance every turn of swinging 5-10% towards the Allies.



Not sure if patches have adjusted any of that.

No, it's still the same. [:)]
