German/Finnish supply issue in Karelia

Post by 4personalbusiness »

Can anyone explain why the German units in Karelia are OOS while their Finnish counterparts are in supply (from Mannerheim). Bug? Thanks, Pete

To be in supply, a unit has to trace supply to a primary supply source:

RAW:

A primary supply source for a unit is:
• any friendly city in the unit’s unconquered home country; or
• for a Commonwealth unit, any friendly city in another
unconquered Commonwealth home country; or
• any friendly city in an unconquered home country of a major
power the unit co-operates with (see 18.1).


For the Finnish units, they trace supply to Mannerheim, who than uses his 2 hexes in this weather to the railroad and further to f.e. Helsinki.
For the German units, they can trace to Mannerheim. However, Mannerheim can't trace within 2 hexes to a German (or Italian) home country city, because tracing overseas adds another hex to the supply path, which makes this path to long in this weather.
