On thing that seems odd is that Axis seem to have ports now on LL, seems not quite right as where is the freight coming from? or am I in a muddle? Or will no freight ever arrive??

Also how does all the population escape when their is no ports??

You can imagine that not every single citizen sat in Leningrad while slowly but surely the Germans crossed the Neva, battled north, cut off Osinovets, and completed investment of the city. Some stayed, some left early, some left late, some slipped through weak points in the siege lines or took trips around the bay in small boats, whatever. They didn’t all sit their obligingly, they probably reacted like humans. But programming some sort of phased withdrawal based on proximity and threat, etc etc probably wouldn’t produce much outside the current evac but it would do so with lots of annoying implementatation.

Other than that, shift Leningrad to import and repair the port, make sure your German ports have the right supply level-export mix, and soon it’ll be hauling in precious supplies (unless you get all your transports sunk)

well you can set it to import but I'm not sure anything will happen as the axis side has no shipping there. Maybe this changes if you have taken Leningrad but not sure about that.

there is a simple test - look at your production screen, do you have any cargo ships for the Lake Ladoga region?

Status: offline 		the question was rhetorical - you shouldn't have any cargo ships on Ladoga as the axis, which is the point. You can set the ports as you wish but it shouldn't make any difference as there is no available shipping (for the axis) in that sea area.
