Playing the big campaign, invaded Sicily with no supply issues. While invading Italy, no supplies are coming ashore. What am I doing wrong?

Supply priority for HQ is 4.

put the supply mode on - you should have depots on the invasion beaches - as long as they can trace a line of supply (ie you control all the hex route), supply will arrive next turn.

watch out for the gap at the foot of the Adriatic, you can easily lose control so make sure you run naval patrol there.

also - HQs don't set priority for supply delivery, they set the demand for supply consumption

Understood. I never saw supplies level drop this low in Sicily, ZERO ammo!

look at the interdiction levels at the south of the Adriatic - my guess is you have lost control of those naval hexes and its broken your supply lines

That's it. Thank you.

Hexes near and around my amphibious force are red, I have lost control of those naval hexes. Does taking control require a high enough level of air supremacy missions in the area?

you need at least +2 on the interdiction scores. So you can gain that via a naval patrol AD or by sailing your TF into the region and back. Neither actually reduce the enemy interdiction so you will pay a price in shipping but at least the isolation penalty will be lifted
