A simple doubt

[Jafele]

Could anybody explain how an unit out of the road is able to receive supply from a far HQ without any transport attached? Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance

All HQs have a 250AP supply range and 'invisible' transport to get it there. This 'invisible' transport can be interdicted but not destroyed. You can of course cut a supply path with your Combat units.

How far from the road? Maybe it is air dropped supply?

To know it select the HQ and press supply layer, then you will see the supply range in different colors (it can be reduced by bad weather). I suppose HQ units include all kind of basic "invisible" transports (planes, trucks, trains and cargoships) to supply units automatically. The same rule applies to HQ in ports. "Visible" transports are only useful for transfers. I didn´t know it.

Yeah, I know that, but isn't your problem that the supply was delivered beyond the reach of far HQ?

[Jafele]

The supply range has a limit: If the units are far enough they can´t receive automatic supply every turn, however they could receive transfers (even transfered supply) due to "visible" transports. The only reasonable explanation I can find is the separation between "visible" (manual) and "invisible" (automatic) transports. Anyway Vic is the best one to explain it.

When a port is builded supply color turns to green. In other words: It´s not neccesary to create there a HQ if you are not going to transfer from the port.

PS: Still I don´t understand [&:]why horses (or even jeeps) can´t transfer with a limited landcap. For transfers jeeps should consume oil and horses supply.
