    Default Re: Reinforcing armies

    EDIT: Didn't see that post ^

    You don't need to send units home to retrain. Just train units in your homeland provinces and ship (or march) them overseas. You can combine the weakened units by clicking on a unit card, dragging it over and dropping it onto another unit card of the same unit. Do this to strengthen the veteran units with the reinforcements.

    There, no more retraining. Just reinforcing. Of course, the greater you expand your empire, the more you will have to worry about the logistical challenge of having a long chain of reinforcements between your homeland and the battlefront. This discourages the blitzkrieg unless you can manage to make enough money fast enough to invest in ways of making the shipment of new recruits faster (better roads, transport fleets protected by navy fleets) or to invest in new, local military forces (mercenaries, regionals) to join your core of veterans.
