Taihoku supply

[ckk]

I have been bombarding and bombing Taihoku for weeks to reduce supply and combat power. The combat power has been reducing but the supplies will take a hit and then recover! There is no intrinsic resupply. all the rest of Formosa is captured. There can be no supply ships as the island is surrounded. And I checked the ops report and there is no air supply. What am I missing?

Taihoku has Manpower, Oil, Resources and Light Industry. If you have troops in the hex the resource and oil production stop but the LI can still use any stockpiled resources.

I just checked there is some LI left. I will do away with that immediately. Thanks. No matter how long I play this, I still find something new[:)]

I had an impression from my AI games that AI's industry can be incredibly productive when there is not enough supply in the hex for the AI LCUs [:D] So bombing away LI/HI was necessary to soften up the defence in the tough sieges
