OK. Back from Heaven to Earth
As you know, Infantry in my Mod can switch between Attack/Defense

inf_Switch.jpg (19.17 KiB) Viewed 4056 times

But now, Infantry have a FUEL !

Yep. Tanks need a Gasoline, people need a Food/Rest.

So:
1. Hex = 3 km
2. Turn = 3 hour
3. Move = 2-3 Hex/Turn
4. Day = 5 Turns

Infantry Movements/Day = (2-3)x5x3 = 30-45 km/Day (average)

For German Infantry: "Fuel" = 21.
In Attack Mode (3 Hex/Turn w/o terrain modifiers)= 7 Turns until Rest/Refuel(21 Hex=63 km/Day).

For example:
Italian Inf have a 15 "Fuel" = 5 Turns until Rest/Refuel (15 Hex=45 km/Day).

If you haven't eaten for a long time. then they weakened their fortitude and morale fell and cannibalism began

Somethink like that

OK. While uzbek eats his horses, I will continue my concept...

So, FOOT troopers have a "FUEL" (rest).

1. Standart Inf - 100%: 21 "FUEL"
2. Light Inf (Mount, Paratroops) - 120 -130%: 24-27 "FUEL".

And Infantry "FUEL" are different for different Nations !

[Yrfin]

Why does a paratrooper need gasoline ))

Of coz Paratroopers don't need gasoline. I said "FUEL" in termz PzC. You can call it "Movement Resource".

? So it is better in other places to have a horse than a tank

Yep. In Yzbek Army

Organization of the Luftwaffe (Formation Tactical level)

Staffel
As such it was slightly smaller than a British, Soviet or US squadron. Staffel usually had 9 to 12 aircraft.
Gruppe
Gruppe was the basic autonomous unit in the Luftwaffe. It had no exact equivalent in the Allied forces, since it was smaller than a USAAF group or an RAF wing, but was also large than an Allied squadron. 3-4 Staffel: 36-48 aircraft.
Geschwader
Geschwader was roughly the size of an RAF wing or USAAF group, with about 90 - 120 aircraft: 3-4 Gruppe.
JG – Geschwader Fighters
ZG – Geschwader Heavy Fighters
KG – Geschwader Bombers
StG – Geschwader Dive Bombers
AG – Geschwader Air Recon
LG – Fight Training Geschwader (misc Gruppes – Fighters, Heavy Fighters, Bombers, Dive Bombers and so).

In PzC terms:
Air Unit Str [12] = Staffel = 12 aircraft.

For example:
1./JG 27 means : 1th Staffel in 27th Geschwader Fighters= Bf 109 Unit str [12].
