Is the Kursk campaign viable?

[Volcano Man]

Actually, this came up several times before in some discussions when I first created K43 ALT campaign scenarios. The recovery rate does not represent replacements, rather, it represents equipment and vehicles recovered and repaired and lightly wounded soldiers returned to duty.

Sure, replacements troops fall into the catigory somewhere (perhaps 1%) but the 2%/6% in Kursk in no means represents replacement soldiers fresh out of training.

Also, the issues lies in that fact that units of men / guns and vehicles utilize the same replacment level. This is rather unfortunate since in many cases the axis should have high recovery rates for vehicle units, moderate for levels for guns and rather low for units of men. The Soviets on the other hand would have a high recovery rate of men to represent those replacments. So because of this system it requires the axis (Germans) to have a moderate recovery rate to properly recover their vehicle based units.
