Out of supply...Not if you are the entente AI...

Post by terje439 »

1. Ok, so I play as the CP and I have a unit cut off by the AI, and it is out of supply (hence very vulnerable). During my turn I move it back in supply, the unit is still marked as out of supply, and seems to be so when the AI attacks it.

2. However, when I do the same to the AI, it is in normal mode when it is my turn.

Moves go like this;
1.1 : My unit is cut off from supply (AI turn)
1.2 : I move my unit back in supply (My turn)
1.3 : Unit is still shown as (and take losses as) it is out of supply (AI turn).

2.1 : AI unit cut off (My turn)
2.2 : Unit is moved back in supply (AI turn)
2.3 : AI unit is fighting normally (no penalty) (My turn)

So it seems that either the AI or the Entente is given a "freebie" by being out of supply one turn less than me as the CP?

Bug or WAD? If WAD, why??

Terje,

Have seen what you are talking about in SP. Below is a SS of a current 1.60 beta MP match (shows out of supply Russians). Just got through with slaughtering 3 Russian infantry and damaging 1 Russian garrison that were out of supply, my moves are done. NOTE the Russian garrison that is close to making contact with Sarikamish on it's next turn move. I may not get my turn for another day to see what the results are from his move. I'll post the result to see if there is a similar situation to yours.

Bob

If the Russian unit pulls back into supply, let me know if it is in supply at your next turn or not.

Btw, armoured cars for the OE? Nice!

The Russian garrison moved and went back to full supply at the beginning of my turn, much to my chagrin. When I attacked it with Turk infantry the garrison was tough as nails, would not budge, I don't even think it took a morale loss!!!! Much like you were experiencing against the AI. SS are before and after moves.

Lost 3 infantry strengths to 2 garrison strengths, How does that figure when the garrison just spent 2 turns "out of supply"?[&:]

Thank you, this means that this happens elsewhere too, and not only on my system. This is imo a rather large bonus to the Entente.
