Hi,

I just started to play an Ironman game vs. the Japanese AI and have run into some trouble with Australia.

Some of my bases simply don't receive any supply, even if they contain units and are connected per rail to a base which contains some 100k of supply. They eventually run out of supplies even I checked stockpile and gave them a higher request.

For cost cities, I can send a cargo TF, but those bases inland are quite a problem, especially because the AI surprised me and landed 1100 AV worth of troops in the base north of Perth.

I would be thankful for any ideas what I'm doing wrong

You need to ship some fuel in to Oz for the HI there. That generates supplies. I usually CS Convoy it from Cape Town. Adelaide is a good point of entry

Well yes, I have about 500k of supplies in Perth and Sydney, but they don't get distributed, thats the problem. Fuel is not an issue because the ports have enough ATM.

Uh oh, maybe I understood that system wrong and did it exactly the opposite?

Thanks for the hint, I'll try it out later

Does stockpile mean the base will give up NO supplies/fuel, or is the amount over what you request eligible for distribution?

Thanks.

If stockpile is set to Yes - meaning yes is what you see - the base will keep its supplies and not distribute them to other bases.
