Isolated Bases

Post by Capt. Harlock »

Something else that seems to be hard-wired besides Japanese Oil: bases on the eastern coast of China are permanently isolated from routine supply for the Allies. It doesn't matter if the Japanese have no Air Zones over the bases and the Allies have plenty. The game code does not seem to be able to wrap itself around the Japanese losing control in this area. ( And yet historically I believe the Chinese managed to break through to the sea in southeastern China.) Very annoying, especially considering that Dakota transport is unreliable.
Civil war? What does that mean? Is there any foreign war? Isn't every war fought between men, between brothers?

I have noticed that with other bases - Anchorage, Perth have been isolated after recapture. Adelaide seems to be out no matter what (bug?). I think in some cases it may be their is a distance limit on how far supply routes can reach from the U.S. west coast.

I agree Capt.

I have captured All bases except those between Nagasaki and Tokyo.
Massive air power and NO ENEMY ZOC affecting passage to Chinese bases.
However ALL chinese coastal bases, from Canton, past Amoy and on up the Gulf are classed as Isolated.
Only Hong Kong gets supplied by routine.
It must be hard-wired that all China gets internal supply or Dakota supply only.
However they do show up on the Oil & Supply prodution lists!!

Adelaide also is isolated!! AND has a Factory producing Mosquitos!!

One of them "phenomena", I expect.
