No not like Leningrad AFAIK. A regular port will only supply the units in the port I think. But Leningrad supplies any unit with a supply line to it.

I think that is the difference. But I could be wrong.

Hi,

Leningrad gets enough supplies to hold out.

It's on the list to make a 'isolated' check to shut that down or at least drop it to a minimal level (it's a big city, they could hold out for a bit).

Port cities receive supply but they are only helpful for units within the port itself.

Minor Ports are also on the list for any isolated Soviet units to have a % chance of being automatically evacuated.

Cheers,

Triggering the Finns intervention should perhaps be linked to something more complicated as just taking Narva and Luga. Both should be captured as a basis, but with perhaps more complicated addition such as cutting the direct line of supply from Moscow (rail-line) (small probability), cutting completely Lake Ladoga supply line (higher probability), or capturing Leningrad (automatic involvement).

Concerning the fact that the Soviet player can remove all its troops, it is not really the case, as the Finns can already advance, but with huge penalties in attack, but if Leningrad is left with only 1 division defending it, I would attack with the Finns, even with the PP penalties.

Finally, perhaps the German division coming from Finland should perhaps be allowed to move freely in SU territories (if it is not already the case), forcing the SU player to defend a bit its territory.
