German Strategic Supply Bases

Post by warnevada »

Playing as the allies in Wacht I managed to capture the strategic supply base at Gemund. I thought I would set it to Deplete so there would be ample fuel readily available. I did that but nothing happens, supply and fuel both sit there at 50,000.

Later in the game I captured the strategic supply base at Bitburg. I tried to do the same thing, but there the game doesn't allow me to do anything.

Capturing other supply bases allows their depletion, why are strategic bases different?

Sorry but for some reason the AI need the Strategic Bases fixed.
Perhaps could be better to assign to Strategic bases less supply/fuel (100)and not 50.000 !

Situation update:

After sitting for several turns doing nothing Gemund suddenly started depleting like other supply bases.

Bitburg still doesn't allow any action. Sounds like a bug, where different strategic bases do not act alike.

Further update: The Stadtkyll base has the same problem as Bitburg, where you can't do anything with it after you capture it.

I noticed the same thing with the Allied strategic supply depots in Wacht am Rhein scenario. The depots' selected supply mode button has this greenish background color and it is locked.
