ny59giants -> RE: Indian Ocean Sit Report (7/1/2007 7:02:53 AM)
I got a question for another Allied CHS player. I know that the Dutch start out with various amounts of LBA replacements. However, it was not until 12/31/41 that Soerabaja reached 20k in supply since I moved the ABDA HQ down there from turn 1 (and also recieved the Naval HQ this turn). Now I can fill out the LBA's for the Dutch regardless of where they are and the amount of supply present at the base. Do you know why?? I could also do so earlier, but only at Kendari since it had reached 20k supply. Thanks [:D]

Fletcher -> RE: Indian Ocean Sit Report (7/1/2007 11:36:35 AM)
Probably your air unit is located at a base and the HQ that the base is assigned to is within transfer range of the air unit�s aircraft type and the HQ is located at a base that has over 20.000 supplies.
