Axis oil crisis simulated?

[uhu]

Hello my fellow Generals,
I'm so new to this game, that I just looked it several times, but had not the time yet to go deeper in it. Still, I'm curious, how deep simulates this highly complex game engine the oil crisis of the Axis? Axis oil reserves run low already in late 1941, that was the main cause, why no more broad offensive operations couldn't be initiated as in 1941. So, are there any effects after 1941 and after capturing the Caucasus oil fields (while I know, that these oil couldn't have been possible to used by the Axis, as they would have been destroyed by the retreating Soviets.)
Some information about the Axis oil crisis:
Search youtube for: "The MAIN Reason Why Germany Lost WW2 - OIL" from TIK(I'm not yet able to post links )

It's almost non-existant. If Soviets bomb Ploesti and later take it, they could have some problems.

Yes, fuel is an issue for delivery but I've never seen a game where either side had difficulty producing enough fuel. It would be nice if it was properly simulated.

I think if as the Axis you capture the oil fields in the Caucasus, they will start to repair and ultimately produce for you. Assuming you hold them long enough. With the supply nerfing, I think it is nearly impossible to get there.

The oil production is not relevant in this game both to german and soviet.

The oil issue is an integral production factor to the game, but the game does not pretend to be a an analytical model for the "war for oil."

"Oil issue"? What issue?

Some Axis players have commented that oil shortages in later game did mean their motorised units had fewer movement points. So at least for some it has been an issue?
