FALL OF STALINGRAD specific documentation
CA: Cavalry. Special tag for Romanian cavalry which in this particular Baku campaign acts as a Romanian infantry, except it gets one extra MP from time to time.

AXIS UNIT TYPES:

Romanian Armored Division: Tank division mostly armed with 35(t) panzers.

Romanian Infantry: Weaker infantry unit, more likely to withdraw and scatter under pressure.

Italian Infantry: Weaker infantry unit, more likely to withdraw and scatter under pressure.

German Infantry: Regular Werhmacht infantry division. Usually most +1 HP replacements arrive as basic infantry.

Pz4: Tank division, backbone of the German Armored Forces.

PZ6: Tiger Tank Battalion, bonus vs enemy tank formations.

Motorized Infantry: Infantry formation with two move points.

German dugout: Weak defense structure to slow down enemy progress. Can only be placed on a border hexagon of a province you fully control.

Air Force unit: This type of unit can bombard enemy units, recon unknown enemy areas, airsupply one encircled own unit, and protect nearby units from enemy air force strafing. Tap any enemy unit within bombing range (which is shown as a circle when the air force unit is selected) to bombard it (requires full move points, which state is shown on the air force unit with a single line instead of multiple move point squares). Bombardment can result in a loss of HP, loss of MPs, an increase in fatigue, or be ineffective (IE). Bombarding a hexagon with multiple units increases the chances of a hit, as does bombarding a known unit with a lot of HPs or mobile units, which are bigger targets (units with trucks, tanks, etc.). Similarly, an enemy unit in a swamp or forest is a harder target. If attacked by an enemy unit, the air force unit might withdraw multiple hexagons and lose extra MPs (to be out of action for one or more turns). In addition, an air force unit can recon unseen (blacked) enemy areas. This is done by touching an unknown enemy area. This will reveal some hexagons near the selected hexagon, and possibly identify some of the revealed units. You can also tap your own out-of-supply combat unit to airsupply it: this action reduces the turns-in-siege counter and the encircled unit may receive 1 MP (please note that the unit might have negative MPs, so adding 1 MP does not result in positive MPs). The operational bombing range is represented by a circle, while the airsupply and rebase ranges are a couple of hexagons larger. Air force units will also prevent enemy air forces from strafing nearby units. The range of this protection depends on the scale of the campaign, and the closer the ground combat units are to the air force unit, the more likely it will be protected from enemy strafing.

Generals/Commanders and their actions: See generic guide for the regular features of this unit type.

SOVIET UNIT TYPES:

Infantry: Regular Soviet infantry unit, backbone of the Soviet Red Army, gets most of the replacements (+1 HP).

Guards: Units in the Soviet armed forces were awarded Guards status after they distinguished themselves in service.

T-34 Division: Strong Red Army tank unit.

Motorized: Infantry with two move points.

Dugouts: Immobile defense structures.

AI Commander: Supports enemy units in combat and provides extra MPs to combat troops just like a General commanded by the player does. Chance of capturing the enemy commander (moving into the same hexagon) is roughly 50 percent, partly depending on MPs of that commander (if you push a commander back several times and it has negative MPs it will be easier to capture).
