Australian Supply

[doktor1957]

Does OZ produce it's own supplies? I'm looking at Brisbane, Sydney, et al, and there is no supply production listed in the base menu, even though they have oil, manpower, resources, and HI available.

Here you go, these links will answer your question.
The first and second one will be very helpful, the third one, is just another option to get resources to Austrailia or called OZ

Those oil, resources, and HI will produce some supply, but don't expect do actually do anything with units in Oz unless you ship stuff over to them.

Yeah, I wouldn't ever waste time crunching numbers for Oz. The US produces sooooooo much supply and fuel (and Karachi to a lesser extent), that whatever Oz spits out is immaterial.

Just form up your giant convoy early on in the campaign and send like 1 million supply and fuel to Oz from SF and/or Karachi. Once those guys get there you won't have any supply/fuel problems in that area. Then repeat every one or two months.

They produce enough for there own defense.
Oz has lots of Ak's sitting in ports. Go collect them and sail them to Sydney and Brisbane. When you get enough warships in place to secure the line form up huge convoys of ships in LA and San Fran and saild them back to Sydney and Brisbane. The supplies from there will distribute to the rest of the country.

In my games I usualy let America help out with defense while I take all the dutch units I can save up north to let them aid the British. So far is has been working well although my dutch subs have an easier time docking in Oz ports since its a shorter trip.

Hey Jager,

I have lost much of DEI and in preperation for needing to evacuate that area I started stocking Noumea with supply and now have 3 AS's there. I m sending S boats and plan to base the Dutch boats out of there if Kendari and Sorebaja do not hold. I am closing Japan off from it's SRA with subs out of Midway and Wake. I planned on using the Dutch subs for slot protection from Noumea. they are short on range (O boats anyway) I figure teh S and Dutch boats could do more good in the Coral Sea and I coudl let Japan have SE Asia. I can cut them off where the China Sea and Pacific meet. I have also sent several Dutch boats north to operate from Columbo. This lets me strangle the Malacca Strait.
