Weird things with supply

Post by EarlyDoors »

Troops from USSR captured Petsamo and its port from the Finns and marched west to take Kirkenes (114,5)

All 3 grew to supply 5

Canadian troops disembarked from the port and marched into Kirkenes which is now showing as 'Liberated -> UK' and is at supply 3

I don't believe this is by design ?

Why does Addis Adaba supply drop to 1 when my italian HQ unit is located there? It isn't cut off from rails, there aren't 2+ enemy units adjacent... later the supply increased to 5. Is there some script that lowers supply in that city when the British approach?

i'd always thought of that as being original USSR territory rather than 'captured' territory but i guess you're right
i've not looked to closely but maybe resources change hands when allied units move into them
i guess i'd always assumed that they remained under control of the original liberator/conqueror

This will probably be a random supply drop caused by the 'Suez hinders Italian supply in Abyssinia' event

I believe this was added in the 1.03.00 patch. I guess it beats being at zero supply.

For Addis Ababa..its the Suez Canal effect I believe. That is to say IF the UK/Allies hold it. It seems to apply randomly across Italian East Africa in a bit of a uneven pattern.

I see thanks for the answer. I was confused why it went back up to full strength later (after I took Egypt)
