This article is considered accurate for the current version of the game.

The army planner controls the training and deployment of new units and the distribution of equipment as reinforcements, upgrades, and Lend-Lease.

Reinforcement[edit]

Reinforcement refers to replacing the lost equipment of existing units.

Upgrades[edit]

Upgrades refers to replacing the equipment of existing units with better equipment.

Lend-Lease[edit]

Lend-Lease donates equipment to another country.

Pre-deployment[edit]

Before a unit may be deployed onto the map, it must first be raised via the army planner. The unit will then go through a training and equipping process before it can be deployed.

Training[edit]

Training allows a unit to start with experience, increasing its capability in combat. The maximum amount of training may be affected by conscription laws.

A unit cannot be trained faster than it is equipped and only to the experience level of trained.

Equipping[edit]

Equipping occurs instantly, limited only by the country's inventory of equipment on hand. Once a unit has at least 10% of its equipment it may be deployed onto the map. However, it may be beneficial to wait until training is completed before doing so.
