1944 Soviet manpower makes no sense.

In 1941 they start with 20700 MP(after general mob) and have to reinforce 1100 MP leaving them with 19600 MP.

1944 they start with 14000MP and have to reinforce 1430 MP that leaves them with 12570MP.
They have also recruited 300 new inf divisions thats 3900 MP not counting brigades.


Since 1000MP are 1 million men how is it that the SU in 1944 still has 12570MP left if they started with 19600?They recruited 3900 MP worth of new divisions that would that would already lower it to 15700.Even the manpower gain over time wouldn't be over 1300MP(probably lower).If it is 17000 MP minus casualties that would mean they lost ca. 4.5 million men(4500 MP) by june 1944.

Historically they lost over 3 million just in 1941 and another 1.5 million in 1942 ,1943 they lost another 2.3 million and during the 1st and 2nd quarter of 1944 they lost another 900k.That's ca. 7.7 million where are the other 3 million casulties? They should have about 9500 MP not 12570 and that's not counting civilian male deaths and brigades .

MP is most cases not historical accurate.

The 1936 start MP is probably for all minors total arbitrary. Checked it for ROM, GRE, YUG, SCH and some more european minors. I all case the MP is far away from historical numbers (also since the start OOBs are in General not very well researched, at least in DH Full.)
