Question about Supply and Production Points

Post by ilovestrategy »

Ok, I'm finally starting to push the Nips back. Ok, I've noticed if I create a supply convoy from the menu for the islands I'm capturing(I'm in the Marshall Islands) I can choose "supply" or "Production Points." And I can choose how many from a slider bar. But I don't know which to choose or how many.

I don't understand this part of the game at all. Can someone please instruct me on what to do? Thanks! [&o]

Production Points (PP) convoy is used to send PP from one country to another. For example as USA, you might wish to send some PP to Australia to help them build their own units.

You have to choose supply if you wish to supply your troops. The value you set at the slider is the value equal to supply that you like to send. But if you will need less supply than you have set, the convoy will take less. If you set up less supply, than your troops need, you will not take more than the amount set, so not all your units will become supplied.
