Placing Supply Points - 4/20/2019 8:38:30 PM

In a scenario I am modifying I can't seem to place supply points for the Allies; no problem for the Axis.
I have the Allies as the current force in the deployment mode, the possession flag indicates Allied ownership.
Any thoughts.

Thanks

Try removing one, and then placing another [maybe you already have the maximum allowed] ?

Thanks, that was the issue.I am finally ready to actually play.

Also, many thanks to all who create scenarios. Just modifying a scenario took me several hours, granted I am not particular computer literate and relatively new to computer games. However, before I was able to make modest changes someone else had to spend several months or possibly years creating the initial work. Hats off!

Actually, depending on the depth of changes, sometimes modifying an existing scenario is more difficult than creating a new one. You aren't familiar with the original intent and designers don't catalogue every design decision, so you can actually mess up a scenario pretty good by changing stuff. But I've been doing it for years and it is great fun, even if some turn out to be trash.

Hats off!

Scenario design is an intensively creative act. The designer means to immerse others in a particular historical situation but ends up becoming part of the scenario himself. It can be almost exhausting.

Cheers
