PostPosted: Tue Oct 20, 2009 4:55 pm Post subject: Supply and reinforce Reply with quote

I am part way through a GJS 4.4 campaign (about 8 days to go) I am Germans. My opponent has been able to reinforce BGs infinitly (not that he has), I understand this is a common problem and he started keeping a list.
   I have been wondering what the supply bar at the top of the screen actually means. Generally it seems to have little effect I know about cut off units having no fuel and little ammo. However the supply bar at the top of the battle group screen seems to vary almost randomly. Part of what has brought up this question is one of my opponents BGs has lost it's ability to reinforce. He has not reinforced the BG in question yet. It first occurred when he attacked a map with his supply cut off, as his plan was to reinforce the BG to attack the map. The BG has been reading as having 1 red bar or no bars in the supply thing at the top of the screen, could this be something to do with it?
   He has tried pulling the BG off the map and attacking another map, still could not reinforce. Fortunately with the other BGs broken so they can constantly reinforce I have allowed him an extra reinforce of his choice to make up for it. Does anyone have an idea of why the BG lost it's reinforce?

Supply actually means Reserves... if there are no reserves to reinforce with...well... that says it all.


CC5 made  a complete mess of supply/reserves and reinforce  CC:The Longest day has fixed all these bugs so you can play with confidence.

Thank you for that information I have a few follow up questions if you can help. So his BG should not be getting reinforcements currently? What causes low supply?

supply cannot be replenished when you can't trace an uncontested path back to the supply barrels... any contested map will block supply.

Supply is calculated at the beginning of turn one.

Movement uses up supply
Battle uses up supply

Thank you very much for your help I have passed a link to this thread to my opponent to explain why he does not have reinforce. Now I can get on with the campaign.
