Hi! Just started to play TOAW IV and started with the Kolberg scenario. How can I easily see if a unit is out of supply ? Nowhere is it stated on the unit information panel and I don´t understand where my supply lines are coming from. See the attached file, where it seems my troops in northeast are in supply but where are their supply coming from ?

Yes, I know that but I don´t see where my supply lines go and thereby how the enemy could cut it without surrounding me. I am used to be able to trace the supply back to some sort of source.

Thanks I will check this out. Is the supply rules identical between TOAW3 and TOAW4 ?

You're playing with "No Borders" ON. The supply trace only appears on hexes you have had adjacent units in.

For the questions you are asking yes.

THANKS! This was the case. Then I am very vulnerable in the northwest only having a small corridor of which supplies flows.
