I am not sure what the effect is of:
1) Taking Murmansk
2) Cutting off the rail line from Murmansk

Is there any effect on Lend Lease by either of these? Can Lend Lease be cut off this way?

Ok, if in winter either Murmansk is taken by the Axis or the railroad is cut, Lend Lease can not reach the USSR?

If so, how does the game handle the PP's if the Allied player forgets to cancel the LL convoy after the Axis cuts off Murmansk. Are they simply wasted (ie subtracted from the UK and not added to the USSR?

Specifically,Alvaro, please tell us what we need to know about Murmansk as the German! Obviously capturing the city itself is the goal. But what are the supply facts around the rail line south into Russia. 1) why effect during winter only? 2)Does supply ever improve for the Finnish-German attack towards that rail line, then especially the one out to Archangel? Other than a slow plodding one hex per month supply truck-driven offensive.

I suspect in the summer the convoys can go to Archangel if Murmansk is captured or the rail line south of Murmansk is cut. Archangel gets locked in by ice in in the winter so convoys to Archangel would not be an option in the winter.

Okay thanks, that makes sense but that doesn't answer my full question completely.
So I'm still waiting for Alvaro to explain the supply situation for the attack to the Russia-Murmansk rail line and then a lack of timely rail hex repair on the way to Archangel.

Lend lease is cut in winter by taking murmansk. As for supply follow the rail lines. Use hqs to extend supply range.

Hey Al, any chance we can get a linking effect from HQs like SC has?

When you click an HQ a small orange flag appears on units within it's range.

I'm talking about the supply feature, one HQ extends the supply net to another HQ which provides supply to the units.

Yeah who came up with that idea of linking hq's?? Let's hear from the man. I understand hq's increase the supply by 1. So if you go along the road towards the Murmansk rail line the maximum supply is 1 + 1 = 2, since there is no rail line, just a road, is that correct? Then, one could burn supply trucks on the HQ that would increase supply to adjacent units and then you can burn supply trucks on the unit itself, is that right?

HQs do not chain
