Why can't minor suppy base be placed?

Post by DerAlpman »

In the scenario about St. Vith I couldn't have placed a minor supply base in the city Adler:

The city has VP, has my units in it and contains a road.

What other requirements must be met?

You need a "minor city II"

Are you sure? Because a valid space was the south western hex from Adler. I had troops there, too.

Sorry but Andler is only a "minor city I " and you need minimum a "minor city II " to build a supply base.

I understood it now. The adjacent city Schönberg is a minor city 3 and the hex I placed the base belongs to it, too.
