Hi

According to the previous update, all units cannot be spawn anywhere anymore.

- Conscripts / militia can be deployed in the smallest cities right after they have been conquered.
- Regular infantry / light tanks / light artillery can be deployed in medium cities 2 turns after it has been conquered.
- Heavy tanks / artillery can only be deployed in and around factories, and the biggest cities 3 turns after it has been conquered.

I would like to invite you to launch the game, click on "Guides" then on PDF guide. Then go to page 33 of it, "Spawning units", everything I just said is written there.

Please do read the change logs :)

Cheers

Have checked the PDF manual.
Have checked the city sizes.
Using Axis in 1939 I can't place Slovakian units even in their originally owned cities; i.e. Cities that should have no restriction on waiting X turns to activate.
They own 2 Towns, a village and 2 Airstrips but can't place any Heavy Mech infantry?

Sounds pretty odd
Will start a new europe 39 scenario and see if I can deploy mech infantry for slovakia there

Are you sure you mean deploying and not buying.. ?
Are you playing with mods? Are you on PC or phone?

Started new game, same campaign, problem not replicated.

Yeah the PC specs really aren’t gonna have any impact here, it’s basic code that runs the same on every machine, thanks for being that thorough, though

So it just got away now?
Demolaye Mar 29, 2023 @ 8:57am 
I believe I'm good.
Like any kind of trouble-shooting, I restarted several similar situations (games) to try and replicate the bug and it didn't repeat. So problem not replicated.

Very-very-very odd nonetheless!

I am running the african campaign (Rommel) from El Aghelia an onwards. Playing as Axis.
I was expecting that capturing cities like Benghazi would allow me to deploy units there?

I capured Benghazi and german units still have to deploy way down at El Aghelia. For a unit to be able to deploy, do I need to keep an allied unit in the city or is a friendly "flag" enough? Also expected that Italian forces would be able to deploy at german captured towns/factories/airfields - and vice versa. Not sure I follow the logic here :)

My thinking may be wrong here so just need to understand :)

If you just captured a victory point, you will see a countdown showing near the tile whenever you try to deploy something, this tells you how many turns are left to wait before you can deploy anything there

There is no special rule as to needing to keep a unit in a VP to be able to deploy something
the VP can be empty this makes no difference

No, you cannot deploy at allies VPs, that would be way too OP in many scenarios
