Wow, didnt know that one. Although in truth it is very strange to have the USSR meddle in China, and even more before the GE DOW.

Then, of course, the wrong control of the hex may have been the cause.

Shouldnt the Finnish units be isolated?

Just a sanity Check, IMO it should but maybe I might not be seeing something affecting.

Yes, it looks to me like they should be isolated. And OOS. Unless, of course, the weather is snow or blizzard. But then they should be OOS anyway.

Could you check on what supply route the program thinks that Mannerheim takes? Would be fun to see what route MWIF thinks is open.

Have you checked if it is the 'update bug' that has reappeared? That is fixed by restarting the game.

Thanks

I checked earlier, and the route was very short (only one of these path milestones, and not reaching any valid source, of course), I reloaded today to post the info, and now the units are correctly OOS and isolated. So I cannot whow you the route, but I recall it was to one hex only, not including sea transport or the primary source. :?

I didn't know (or can't remember) an "update bug", but that should be it, because now it appears correctly. We'll try to do this in the future. This image is obtained, of course, editing the file to run as H2H, since we aren't playing today,

We are using 8.00
