Does anyone know the exact hexes for anti partisan duty in Russia?

THX in advance.

Uhm, which hexes needed to be occupied in Greece?

Athens alone is not enough. :confused:

Thanks, but uhm, unfortunatly i still don't get it

[jon_j_rambo]

Good question, don't get the answer either. I just don't bother to garrison anything in Greece, because Athens alone isn't the answer.

[ChrisND]

The partisan event can activate in any of the tiles in the script, and has a range of 6; this means that wherever the script activates, it will damage Athens if it is within 6 tiles.

In other words, you'd have to garrison pretty much the entire country to stop the script from activating.

[Bromley]

Pretty sure you can do it with just 2 units.

xwormwood. You need a unit in or next to each of those map positions. You can write them down and then look in game/editor to see where they are, but IIRC they're the city and all the mainland mountain squares other than the northmost 3 and the southmost 2.

[TaoJah]

In Greece you only need 2 units : on 98, 28 and 96, 26.

In Russia you need 5, but I am thinking about a strategy where I would just let Russian partisans pop up, destroy them with my airplanes and then not occupy the hexes again. That should stop them from repopping up.

In Russia you need 3 for the marshes area.

And also one on each city except Riga

[Bromley]

More than 5 - you need for many of the cities not covered by those 5.

I was thinking about using partisan units as target practice after something Terif posted. I doubt it'll be worth it though as they also interdict supply, slowing down your advance.

[TaoJah]

Yes, sorry, I meant 5 plus the cities not covered by those.

In my current HvH Axis game, I am gonne try the whole let-the-partisans-pop-up-and-bomb-them-and-let-the-hexes-stay-red, we'll see how that goes.

[jon_j_rambo]

Screw Greece. No reason to garrison it.

[BioWizard]

4 russian cities will never generate partisans : Riga (annexed from the Baltic states) and Baku, Tblisi and Grozny (Caucasus).

[hellraiser]

Baku, Tbilisi and Grozny will generate partisans when playing the AI, I think. In H2H they won't pop up. At least it is how I remember it.

[Bromley]

Good spot. That's a recent addittion I think. Not sure which cities are affected, but here's the event:
