Another One

[Glenn Saunders]

Another question. Even two.

1) I am playing Mogilev scenario (Smolensk'41) as Germans against AI and have a problem with engineers: they can not set up a bridge. It says "Bridge Ops" on their picture as long as about 4 or 5 turns already. But they are not getting their job done. Any ideas what could it be?

2) About supply. In the manual there is a two step calculation process described: first the Local Supply Value test and then a Range (to HQ) test. The question is when Virtual Supply Truck Optional Rule is ON, does it apply only to the first part? Just to make sure that with this OR the range to HQ is still important and the second test is being performed as usually.

The Eng ability to build the bridge is related too:
- the PDT value
- the unit Quality
- and I think there is a modifier for a COY vs a BTLN strength unit

Give the PDT Value is fixed this means a A QUALITY Btln will usually be much faster than C Quality Eng and the C Quality ENg will be much less likely to build a bridge if it is a COY vs the full BTLN.

Calibration for the Bridge Building time vs Quality was done in BULGE and while it seems to take forever, in reality, more often than not those bridges are built faster in the game then they were done in real life.

On the supply question - I am not following all the details of the question but with VST supply, the local supply value is certainly used.
