Hi Everyone,

I'm having trouble sending the SA resources to France via Gibraltar. When initially sent to France, they were routed through the Bay of Biscay. I rerouted them to the Cape, and they stopped. CW selected the English resources to send to France instead, and refused to let me reset the SA ones.

So frustrating.

Additionally, the sea routing works, but forgets the previous turn's routing and needs rerouting every time.

Sigh.

The best time to do final production and Convoys is during breakdowns. When you get to Russian Breakdowns, go into the production screen and allocate who is sending what resources to what country etc. once finish advance forward from USSR production and then complete Axis Final and then Allied final. Its important to remember that you may need to finalise French Final before CW final for example to lock in a CP route you have set. You can do this by selecting the flag of the country from the final production screen. Also if you are playing a PBEM game, never save mid final and send to your opponent. I usually get instructions from the Axis player as to his wishes and do the Allies all at the same time. I only send the save for Axis builds. Saving mid final production and sending the save will reset everything on reload of the save. Its important not to try to do too much before nearing the final production screen. As long as you have the CP's in place its easy to fix. Trying to micro manage during your turn and during End of turn actions it is just too annoying and you end up repeating the same settings you already set.

Something that annoys me is sending an CW oil to China via lending the game picks up the Canadian oil no matter what instead of the Burma oil. It uses a bunch of CP's and stops a resource going the other way. I always use up the Canadian oil during the reorg(Oil) phase

Good luck, tell me how you go.

You should be able to manually change the oil resource that you want going to China.
