This makes no sense to me, I am branching off the main existing road very near my SHQ.

You can't build a road through hexes that were just added to your territory this turn.

Status: offline 		Thanks, good to know this. But I don't think it explains my problem because these hexes had not been added the previous turn. I had already extended further east and was not getting sufficient supply. I was also getting an unexpected message that I had promised to hold a particular hex/town (news to me) and that I might need a road near it. This was all murky to me, but I figured I'd build a road.

Ah, so it's just that the error message is misleading, but there really is a reason why it can't be built. Thanks!
