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).

It seems like some certain artillery pieces ( playing the Soviet side ) don't seem to get produced. Their end date is 9/45 so I don't understand the problem.

The 152mm gun-howitzer, 152mm field gun, and 280mm siege mortar are the culprits I notice.

I think you mean the 152mm Howitzer not the gun howitzer. Have you looked at the production screen? The # in front of their name means something, in this case they are obsolete and no longer in production. Check page 54 of the unofficial manual.

Some parts of the game require the available date of the device not just the production date this is whet the First Date and Last Date are used for. This is not stated in the manual.

some or all of those are out of production at game start or their production run ended just shortly after GC41 start with additional production modelled as additional guns in pool.
