jakobrogert -> Surrounding & Supply + Magic the Gathering Graphics Question (11/14/2007 6:43:54 PM)

Hi!
I'm a happy customer and have played a few scenarios vs the AI, who is, as others here confirmed, devious in terms of always trying to surround my troops. What I find a bit strange though, is that it seems a single truck (with a single truck in it) subdivision can block the supply for a huge amount of troops if it's on the right hex.
As I see things, a single truck subdivision shouldn't really be capable of blocking all supply transfer and if it does, it looks like there's a risk for a dominant strategy in producing a huge amount of truck subdivisions just running around the enemy cutting supply and then requiring numerous attack moves to get rid of. Or am I wrong? The AI usually sends out lots of small units on surround-missions, which in turn takes one Attack Move each to get rid of.
Perhaps there is a relation between the size of the troops and the gradually decreasing amount of supplies making it through, but as I perceive the rules, there isn't. And I do think that it strikes me as strange, that it's that binary. However, I'm no expert on warfare of any period, why I'm happy to hear someone else's opinion on this.
Then I have a question regarding the fantasy graphics used in the fantasy scenario, which is art from old Magic the Gathering cards. Was the art bought or are they in some form of open license, legally speaking? (since I guess the protective and overly possessive Wizards of the Coast would have their lawyers knocking your door the second they saw this, unless it was obtained in a, for them, orderly fashion)?
