Please, could you explain me how it works?
If you assign a plan for ur troops, for exaple to go from let's say Berlin to Warsaw and they get all these bonuses from preparing etc. What happens when you launch the plan and then suddenly take 2 divisions from that plan to do different move? Do they lose the preparation bonus immediately AND do they return to their previous plan after they finish the different move/ attack order you have given them during their outgoing battle plan?
Thanks thanks a lot. I am very confused about this certain thing.

Yes, you can give units in a battle plan manual orders and they will return to the plan after completing the manual orders. No, they won't lose the planning bonus for doing so.

Planning bonus is lost gradually when moving over time. So at some point you will have to stop and build up a new bonus. So you cant go all the way to Moscow in one thrust.
Hypothetically. Doesn't always go exactly according to plan... Both the French and Germans can tell you that :p

Sure you can go into Moscow with just one thrust, but not if your operation relies on having the planning bonuses all the way!

For those wanting to micro-manage their armies the best way will be to set up battle plans to get the planning bonus, set the plan in motion, then start intervening with where units go to get them doing what you want.
