Reinforcements and how they are dished out

[GuderianTA]

I noticed that there are several buttons in which a player can decide whether to send equipment to new units or to send them to reinforce existing units.
My questions are
1) how will units be reinforced if i decide to send equipment to them? For example, will equipment be sent to unit A, and once unit A is filled, send equipment to units B? or will equipment be sent out to all the units at the same time, taking much longer to reinforce all of them.
2) I have not noticed a reinforcement button on individual units.. is there one?
3) Finally, is there a way to change the reinforcement stance of entire armies easily through the general UI on the bottom?

Thanks

I believe you can set priorities for individual units. I know you can set which equipment a division will take, so for example Panzer Lehr is the only division in Wehrmacht to get a full allotment of Panthers and halftracks.

I would also like to know more about the specifics. I believe I also read that reinforcements can lower the experience of a unit, so 12th SS Panzer for example has veteran battalions from the Ostfront but also green Hitler Jugend battalions as well. Or possibly it averages it out?

They mentioned you can set priorities by theatre as well as by division template.

So put all your garrisons in a special theatre and they'll be lowest of the low whilst your special forces in another special theatre get the best as fast as possible.

Something I wonder a bit is how much it will "lag"

I mean, will a new Tiger be ordered from Berlin the same hour it gets blown up, or will the process take a while? It would be neat if a request would have to be sent that could take a while to reach HQ before a replacement gets sent back to the unit.

I think equipment travels through the logistical network. I don't know if there is a delay in calling for equipment though, that would be a nice touch.
