The Great War In Europe [Command #33]
Questions & Answers
Q(16.3) German Calvary Conversion says to follow the same procedure as converting shocktroops without the chit play. Should we interpret this to mean the CP player must expend 1 RP and then can convert up to six Calvary units per turn? What are the calvary conversion reminder counters for if the conversion takes effect immediately?
A. The cavalry conversions take place without chit play OR R.P. Cost. The Central Powers player converts them, one at a time or in groups of any size(s), any time he wants. The markers are simply a device to remind you which have been converted, so you don't go through some futile 1,200-counter cavalry hunt to verify which divisions have and have not been converted.
Q. I have found four counters in TGWiE that appear to have missing or incorrect setup codes. BE HQ and FR 62R Inf each have a circled "A" code. Is it correct to assume that the letter is correct, but that it should be uncircled? Also, my RU SW HQ and RU 23 Inf counters just have a very light ink smudge where the setup code should be. I'm also assuming that these should be uncircled letter "A" codes. Correct?
A. Correct.
Q: Is it legal to move to a hex where the unit would be unsupplied?
A. It is NOT permitted for either side to move OOS.

Q: The rule (8.?) states that new units are placed in "cities". Does this mean "cities" only, and not "towns"? A good example of a related situation, is the inability to place Serbian units inside Serbia after the fall of Belgrade, despite having replacement units available.
A. Serb units (like Belgian units) may reenter the game with their HQ if all their cities fall. The use of HQs is not unrealistic in my opinion-it represents the use of command/logistic structures to recycle troops into the front line, and the placement of hqs for this purpose adds an interesting strategic choice for the players.

Q: Can you trace supply through enemy hexes.
A: You CAN trace supply through enemy hexes with no units in them-so one cavalry raid can't take out an army.

Q: Does Serbia accumulate resource points if it is completely axis controlled and there are no serbian units on the map,not even the HQ?
A:Serbia may continue to accumulate RPs (up to 10) after its army is destroyed-Serbia never collapses.
