Hi Guys,

Rick is spot on for the disabled. The 434K is the number of men needed to bring his units to Max MTOE, 100%. With an 8M man Soviet Army, 434K isn't bad, what year are you in in the game, Weasel? 7.8 Million men is a Soviet Steamroller! You are always going to be short men. I set my MTOE max to 90% to helps units and the replacement system to compensate. You are only short 5% of your total force roughly. Your units are at 95% strength (in theory). You're in good shape.

Breakdown. Active 693455//Transfer 45701 //Disabled 1.5M//Units 7.8M//TOE 8.2M//Balance -434347

8.2M men for 100% strength units. Your target strength.
7.8 are in units. Actual strength.

Men in Production System
1.5 M men are disabled, (KIA, WIA, MIA, Awol, Deserters, etc etc) Missing strength, sent back to production.
693455 men are in the active pool to report to units as replacements
45701 are transferring from the production pool (recruitment and training) to the active pool

That leaves you short -434347. (8.2m-7.8m = 400,000est.) You have 700,000 men in active pools for units, so you may have you MTOEs set at 90%. Look at the Commander Report under the units tab.

It will not add up exactly because men are coming and going through the system. So it grabs a snapshot number of men in units and needed to fill units in the logistic phase.

In the What's New PDF,

v1.09.01 - November 24, 2016

35. Added manpower statistics for every active country on given side to logistics phase log. They show active manpower pool, transfer manpower pool, disabled manpower pool, actual number of men in units, number of men that should be in units according to their TOEs, and a difference between those two numbers. German totals include Hiwis. Those values are calculated at the end of the logistics phase, after replacements were dispatched.

You can toggle the pools in the production screen by selecting All Pools, Active Polls, and Transfer Pools (bottom right). This is part of the drive to fix all the erroneous reporting that has plague the game and provide the player correct information. These are some excellent additions to the game.

The manuals again have the info all over the place. Not to mention manpower reporting has had a lot of errors. The 1.11 beta is fixing some of these too. Reading through the What's New's back to 1.09.00 helps explain some of the changes.

Check Rules 18.2 Replacements for further info. Again, the info is a bit all over.

Hope this helps, See you on the Steppe!
