Supply does not trace over Deep Water hexes.

interesting, how would troops on D-Day get supplied across the channel. In this scenario, they are all deepwater hexes.

The designer had better have placed supply points on the far side of the Channel at appropriate places.

Okay I understand. This seems to limit play, because everything is predicated upon predetermined supply points on coastal areas. my assumption was that all ports once secured are potential supply points.
Best plan your strategies based on these locations. Makes it difficult to improvise. Thanks for the help.
