AI and supplies

[mcaryf]

Could someone please confirm for me whether the AI plays with "advanced" supply if the human player does.

I loaded up with advanced supply on as Germany and no fog but I could not see any supply trucks amongst the enemy forces. I then reloaded with the Western Allies also human controlled and immediately spotted supply trucks where there had previously been none.

I am keen to know if the AI has to worry about supply routes etc as playing previously with ordinary supply I was irritated to have cut off Malta for several years to no effect.

So my query is - if I have to worry about supplylines does the AI or is it just working on ordinary supply rules?

Yes, if you have it checked to play with advanced supplies, it will do so.

Hi Joel

Thanks for the answer, however, if the AI is playing with advanced supply why can't I see its supply trucks. Or is its form of advanced supply different to a humans?

I don't know why you wouldn't see supply trucks. If you just start a game as Germany you'll see the Allied supply trucks. If you're not seeing them I can only assume they aren't there.

Hi Joel

OK I do see them now - not sure what I did first time I tried it - sorry to have raised a non-issue!
