Germany, how to enact Anschluss?

[Toxicwire†]

It says for that policy to be enacted I need 550K manpower... But when I look on the top it says my manpower from the pool is
Army: 629k
Air: 29k
Navy: 25k

How do I fix this or go about going with this poilcy?

It says that much manpower in divisions, in the field.

[Toxicwire†]

How do I check how many men are in the field then?

[mad bwoi]

it seems to be a little buggy

that event worked for me after the friendship japan event

Doesnt work for me too, I dont know what im doing wrong.

just put some more troops in the field and it should be good. manpower in land army does not seem to be 100% the same as manpower in divisions

its really "in the field"
if you are maxing out inf weapons and supplies and you are producing a lot of inf, you can make "anschluss" early 1937 for me it was in april, but i guess february of even january is possible.
the best thing is: you´ll need those divisions and production lines later either way.

I just hit the 650k mark and now it works.

Train more troops and deploy them in provinces. ( if you played the tutorial you should know how to do this. ) Once it reaches an 'active' pool of 550k the policy is unlocked! When you start playing germany the first things you should do is train a bunch of infantry, research industry/electroics and build lots of industry. And steadily pump out more and more units, tanks and air!

It's quite a steep learning curve, but once you master this game... you'll be a armchair general god, lol. I played alot of strategy games but I too have to learn how this game works. So much to do and to find out. Argh!

Anyway, this game was not designed for a 15 mins of play a day. Prepare to lose countless hours on this, haha. Play a few rounds, lose, restart, pick an easier country, lose again, repeat, but someday try a new country and win!

Second time it became available at 650k, not 550. The value seems to be wrong.

units you are training is counted into th e current army manpower, however, the event specifies in the field wich the units in training is not

Not buggy at all. It just doesn't happen to count divisions abroad helping out as volunteers, or divisions in training not on the map yet.

And you're looking in the wrong place.
