Norway and Oil

Hi everyone !

In one of my currents PBEM game, my Axis adversary failed to take Norway. I put a strong UK corps to protect Oslo, and a Norway DD group was added to the Royal Navy. Great !

But I just can't move this group because Norway has no oil. So I wanted to create a trade route from UK to give a few oil points to Norway, but... « No rail or convoy connection to ally ».

How can I provide Norway with oil to move thoses ships ?

Thanks for your answer (even if it's just : "You can't").

The issue is there is no convoy lane to them.

I had issues having one there before thus I removed it.

Let me think on this.

Ok. Thanks.

Or may be something like a convoy to Norway only if Norway is Allied controlled ?

Or just considering the ships are part of the Royal Navy and then supplied in Oil by UK ?

And same problem also with Vichy France, attacked by German in 1940 after France surrended. You just can't give them oil.

The only lane to Vichy North Africa is through Algiers. If it is taken by the other side (and very often it is 1st turn because of its importance), then no way to give them lend-lease (or collect the ressources).
