Nordic convoy

Post by tyronec »

I had cancelled the Nordic convoy but on opening this turn see the AI had reinstated it.
Looks like if the Ore is going by Norway you can cancel it OK.
But if the Ore is going by Sweden and then the Baltic freezes then the AI will open Norway regardless.

Soars high above the clouds;
Meanwhile, the nightingale intones
With sweet, mellifluous sounds.

I am a bit confused by this is as well. You need to block Baltic and Nordic together at the same time to stop both!

It's confusing I believe that Nordic is Norway/Baltic is Sweden as alternate if the ice is open. Though close both just in case.

Am not confused, just think there is a minor bug. The player doesn't control which route the ore uses, that is down to the AI.

I was wondering about this also. I was thinking that it might be a strategic change. What I mean is, it almost forces you to take Norway to provide air cover for that convoy route. In the past, I didn't need to invade it to maintain its resources.

There are 2 routes Baltic and Nordic. During the non-winter Sweden uses the Baltic. During the winter it uses the Nordic.
