Unable to use activate motorpool via card in blitzkrieg campaign

Hi,

Please excuse the photo of my monitor but i had problems taking a screenshot whilst dragging a card. How do I activate motorpool? I have logistics level 2 but when I drag the card I only see the ability to use the card to add a truck to increase supply. I do not see an option to motorise all units under a HQ.
Thanks in advance,
Matt

Hi Matt,

there is no motor pool "plus" for the germans. This was an allied special, modelling the overwhelming allied superiority in logistics and transport.

In contrast, german supply at the time was mostly horse drawn (!) so much so that we considered whether an Opel Blitz truck card is even appropriate :)

Cheers!

Well, PzG K could motorize it's infantry just like the allies. Only problem was that PzG K had no infantry, at least not in the alternative history campaign:)

IIRC the only historical scenario where motorization is possible is the Yugoslav scenario with Panzer Group Kleist's foot infantry divisions.
