I'm playing as Germany and sent 3 panzer II tanks to fight on the coastal province in the Spanish Civil War, I have naval base access and having my battleships on the coast province is not giving any bonus to the combat, is it because they are not considered volunteers? Maybe only units assigned as volunteers can contribute? Has anyone else run into this bug?

Not a bug, it is a missing feature that the game has no way to assign naval volunteers. You don't need this at all by the way, republican Spain is so weak it falls even without axis help.

Yes, it's exactly that.

To explain a bit more:
It's like when you have your tactical bombers in southwestern Germany. You can assign them to a mission in Spain, because they have the range, but they will not contribute, because Germany is not at war with Spain.
You have to select Nationalist Spain, click send volunteers, check air volunteers, send, have them accept and then send the planes to a ariport in Spain.

There are no naval volunteers, because I think the concept would be flawed. To which waters would the naval volunteers be sent? German Navy could fight Soviet Navy in Atlantic and Med but not in Baltic sea?

Also it is a matter of practical limitations. Warships at sea are easily identified, sailing under another banner won't work.

I'd rather see a serious limitation in volunteering armoured battalions too as repainting hundreds of tanks wouldn't work either.

I think air volunteering happened also only in small wings of repainted aircraft.

P. S. : The sailors volunteering on their own would be mutiny or volunteering by orders would be direct intervention. I think air volunteering also worked as selling or lend-leasing the planes and the pilots volunteering on their own, at least on paper.

Thanks for clearing this up. You brought up a another question, I got the option to send only 3 divisions and there was a check box above that said "check" if sending air support. I did check it but when I click on their airbases I can't add planes. How do you add planes and can you if it exceeds the 3 divisions? In other words how do I add planes to the combat after checking box do you have to manually move planes?

"Redeploy" a wing from their home-base in Germany to air-base in spain
How many planes can I re-deploy when I checked the air support? It didn't tell me how many I could send? Is there a max or is it all your air planes?

As i sidenote i think you're better off sending mountaineers than tanks as you can farm more XP with those.
Thanks for the tip, I noticed there were a lot of mountains

You can see the number of planes, which you are allowed to send at the beginning in the same screen where you assign your volunteer divisions. ( hover your cursor over the checkbox)

When you have deployed into spain; the Spanish air-base has an extra info like 50/100: means 50 plans deployed ( of 100 possible allowed ). For this case I do not mean the space-number ( like 50/2000)

Thanks for explaining it! I'll look for it.
