Hex 122,75

Post by Tanaka »

Do you have to own Port Sudan to move past this hex? My units there can never move forward south?

Is Wadi Halfa at a 3 resource? Your unit is Axis in an occupied tier 3 minor country if I'm not mistaken. If it is at 3...that's probably the answer..lack of supply. (btw..seems we got a standoff just south of that hex on that lonely stretch of RR at the junction). The Allies are in a similar situation with supply unless I get an HQ into Port Sudan...which I may..or maynot [;)]

Wadi is supply 5. The hexes below it are not...Can you not move into hexes that are less than supply 5?

Yeah you can go into a 0 supply hex from a supplied hex if you got the AP.

Btw..apologize, I was wrong on occupied Egypt resource particulars.

So I ran that US mechanized Corp from Port Sudan to the RR junction to block you from operating in or out of Khartoum. The supply situation was Port Sudan (5), the next road hex west (3), and the RR junction next is at (0).
I had enough AP to get to the 0 supply hex..but it got stuck. I was wondering why your Italian Army in Wadi Halfa didn't pounce on it.

The only way I could back him out was to shift/swap with an Allied infantry corp..that's now stuck...at least its blocking the Cairo to Khartoum RR...desperate times means desperate measures! [:)]

But as you said you can move into 0 supplied hexes if you have the AP so why can't I move any further? Is AP reduced for some reason?

Is that Italian Army south of Wadi Halfa in supply now? I'm curious of whats happening there also.

When I pull my turn...I'll screenshot the supply overlay from the Allied pov. (I'm not worried about a reveal such as this being exploited by you, or visaversa by me concerning the Italian Army) [8D]

I did move the US mechanised corp out of Port Sudan to the 0 supply hex at the RR junction on purpose in a desperate attempt to isolate that German-Italo army group down in Khartoum and Kassala...as I'm working out a back up plan in this theater to slow you down somehow :))

Edit: Tanaka..pulling my turn..I see you rectified the RR junction with an Italian tank corp from the south...so I have no idea what was going on with your Italian army moving south out of Wadi Halfa. Well..no need to screenshoot ...and for operational reasons..don't want any reveals to you now. :))
