Hi,
just bought the game and am playing the grand campaign as Germans.

so it is day two and after one of the battles I clicked on the "text" button for the whole campaign to see my losses.

Apparently I have lost 6 armor ?! even though I did not loose any in the battles.
I believe I did have six armored vehicles immobilized (i.e. TRACKED in the woods).

so does the game think I actually lost the tank if it is immobilized even when I won the map and advanced??

does this mean that in my force pool, I have one less tank also?

thanks

I believe any vehicle damaged or destroyed is counted under armour.

I also have a theory that a vehicle damaged in one battle, and brought into another, which gets damaged even further may be counted.

there was a chart with ccv on damaged vehicles.
like this approx.

if support is:
100% and immobile tank has 80% of fix
40% then 60%
0% 10%
same with fuel.
if u have 0% fuel, likely 80% tanks immobile.

maybe u just got unlucky, what was your supply lines/supply like?

Tanks that have been damaged and infantry units that have taken losses are able to make some repairs in the field and find replacements, respectively. All damaged tanks are assigned for field repair after each battle. 40% of damaged tanks can be made functional, but the rest are either too damaged for repair and/or scrapped for parts to repair the 40% that survive.
Any infantry unit that has 60% or more of its soldiers killed or seriously wounded is disbanded, and its survivors are either sent to other units or rotated to the rear. Infantry units that take less than the 60% losses are assumed to find replacement men from disbanded infantry units or from new men brought up from the rear.
Scrapped tanks and disbanded infantry units must be replaced from the unit’s reserve force pool.
Replacements do not strictly come forward from “rear” areas. They are also supplied from the larger organization which your Battle Group belongs to. Even when surrounded, your Battle Group can receive replacements because it is assumed they are being sent over from company or division HQ, which has been surrounded along with your Battle Group.
Battle Groups out of supply have reduced chance of repairing damaged vehicles or replacing infantry losses.

Does that count for tanks that start a battle immobile because you're out of gas? That'd be a shame to lose %60 of your tanks when all u need to fix them is a gas can... Shocked
