Understanding Supply: Air vs Land
Posted: Fri Dec 18, 2020 11:57 pm
Air units can receive supply from urban resources and ports just like land units. However, to receive supply from a HQ, an air unit must be attached to it. Air units which are not attached to a HQ that is in range are indicated by a red hatch beneath the unit. Air units which could receive a higher level of supply if attached to a different HQ in range are indicated by a purple hatch beneath the unit. Unattached air units, especially in low supply areas, can find themselves much less effective in combat than attached air units.
Why is Air Supply different from Land Supply? Distance from the HQ does not affect land units but it affects air units? Why? No wonder the AI puts its air units on the front line to be destroyed...
