Blown Bridges and Supply

[stolidog]

Noticed in playing the GC that the Allies can trace supply through a blown bridge map as soon as the Bridge starts getting repaired (shown by the wrench). This seems a bit unrealistic, especially in tracing major supply all the way back to Valkenswaard. IMO, a bridge should be fixed before you can trace supply through the map.

Good catch/observation stolidog!

This oversight has further consequences. For example, if the Germans manage to blow, Son, St. Odenrode, and Grave Bridges. As soon as the "wrench" symbol is on the Son bridge the Allies will be able to trace supply and then simlutanously be able to start repairing the St. Odenrode and Grave bridges before the Son bridge Repairs are finished. XXX corp tank brigades can't cross the Son bridge, but somehow their engineers can manage to get up the road with some bailey bridge equipment (or it was magically paradropped in) for them to start repairing the next few bridges. This is also unrealistic. Fixing the game where major supply can't be traced through a blown bridge would fix this problem.

I am ok with supply of ammo and fuel getting through a blown bridge although it would be best if it were limited. I agree getting heavy equipment through is a nonsense though.
