ORIGINAL: Shoot Me_I Explode
Can anyone tell me how to increase the supplies that each of my units have. Most of my units have 2 or 3 supply but alot of them are stuck at 0 and dose not seem to increase.
As Erik suggested, Supply Priority is the key to resupplying your units. The easiest way to manage it is from the Military Asvisor screen. I'll attach a screenie from my AAR.
See the supply column? The number is the supply level. You'll see, for example, that the 19th division has a supply level of 8 - so they're in good shape. In the parenthasis is the supply priority. It can be set as follows:
0 = No resupply (just forage)
- = Low Priority (the default value)
N = Normal Priority
+ = High Priority
The 19th division, with their 8 supply is set to 0. They are in good shape so I have lowered their priority. Looking at the 18th division on the other hand, you'll see their supply is down to 4, so I have them set to Normal priority. I've upgraded their supply. Supply priority is set at the container level. You can set it for an army and it will apply to every container below that army or you can set it for each invididual division (which is what I typically do).
The key to remember is that supplying your armies is EXPENSIVE! Change the supply priority of an entire army and then go back to the nation screen and see what it does to your support costs. Basically, you want to keep supply costs down for armies that are near full supply and unlikely to see significant action. But supply has a HUGE impact on your battle results. IMO supply is more important than generals. If your supply levels are low, you'll lose pretty much every battle you fight. In other words, there is a reason why supply is so expensive - because it is so very very important.
Hope that helps. Let us know if you have any additional questions.
