Convoys do not stop

Post by Duedman »

Hi there,

as I understand cutting off Murmansk and Archangel from the capital will stop the convoys.
It is not enough to just grab one hex of the rail, you need to capture a town or bring it below 5.

I usually do this by Stratbombing the towns north of Moscow / Gorky.
I never focussed on this but always had the feeling that something is off.

In Herzog Siegs recent episode it can be seen, that I bomb one of the towns down to 2.

Still in the end he gets convoy income - which should not work anymore.
I think next turn it will cease.
Can it be that the calculation for this lags a turn behind or something?

The towns need to be captured, bombing them does not interfere with the convoy as the scripts do not take the urban resource's strength into account here, only their ownership.

Bombing the destination ports would be different - if you can get your bombers in range of them. Or use the Kriegsmarine.
