T85: Nothing much is happening anywhere because of the mud season. A lot of my units are too far forward to be supplied so I'm retreating from those kinds of places. Mostly out in the desert.

T89: Nothing much happened anywhere because of the mud season and the low supply situation. A lot of my units were too far forward to be supplied so I'm retiring from those kinds of places. Not too much happened in the north pretty much. Further south I see a hex that has nothing but my units in reorg in it. D'oh. I've got some of my smaller units making those front two hexes and except for those two divisions that are in reorg there's not much to attack with. I hesitate to attack a hex with less that at least as many as the defender. Which is to say, I'd rather attack a single hex with at least two hexes worth of attackers and I don't have that here so policy says to wait until next turn. The rest of the insets are just to give you an idea about various places. Sounds like I need to go into detail on some of those places.

In some areas the flow of supply has not quite reached all the way to the front lines. The upper inset is such an area. It's 100% mud and it's not just movement that is hampered it's also supply. The supply level is 0% at the front here and I've not been moving them nor attacking with them. Now I've got a division that is having a hard time and needs to be rotated out. I'm having to rotate units in and out of the front lines when they reach the point when they are no longer combat ready.
