What does a supply depot do for you in a sea zone???

Do fleets need supply depots???

[Uncle_Joe]

Fleets dont need supplies. The depots are for supplying land units across the water. Depots have to form a chain back to a friendly province whether by land or by sea.

Quick question: does a depot also have to be built in the province containing the friendly city you're tracing supply back into?

[Uncle_Joe]

Yep. You have to chain them out from a friendly province containing a depot.

But your units only have to be in a province adjacent to a supply depot correct? The supply depot does not have to be in the province you are in as long as there is a supply depot in an adjacent province am i right?

Anymore benefit from having supply depot directly in the province you are in???

You are right on being adjacent. The issue raised, I believe, is where does the chain of depots have to start.

No benefit that I know of from having a depot in the same province your men are in.

I may have dreamed this but I think I remember reading somewhere that if you have Depots in the same Provice where the battle take place you get more Caissons. I may be way off on this.
