Hi guys,

Playing allied side and my airbases at Imphal and Kohima have supplies but no fuel. They have roads and minor rail connected to them back to Calcutta which has lots of fuel but I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Is re-supply of fuel a weekly thing? or as I said am I just missing something logistically.

David.

no need for fuel at inland bases. If there would be industry, the RR or road network would transport/shift them to ports.
R E M E M B E R: Fuel is for ships, supply simulates all the needs, incl. aviation fuel for operating your planes.

Inland bases do not need fuel. Fuel is only used for ships and heavy industry (Japan) Air units and ground units need only supply to function normally. That is why fuel does not flow. There is no demand. Good hunting.. Dang! Second best again!

Heavy Industry at inland bases does need fuel. None of that at Imphal.

By seconds.

FYI, Allied HI would require fuel as well.
