So, I think I actually have a pretty good handle on the basic in's & out's of supply in the TOAW engine - in no small part thanks to Oberst Klink's '42 tutorial on supply and logistics but...I load up the Balkans '12 scenario and what do I see? Both sides field actual supply units. To my knowledge, these aren't addressed in the manual and I also haven't seen them treated in any tutorial I've come across either.
Can someone give me the skinny on what these units actually do and how they might be employed?
My instinct tells me they perhaps work like a supply "booster" - i.e., as you move further down the rail/road network away from a supply source, the supply level gradually attenuates...perhaps these units boost the supply level back up?
Or, perhaps these units behave more like mobile supply sources and they emit supplies "organically" (i.e. irrespective of their relationship/distance back to supply sources)?
They are addressed in the manual (8.1, 9.1.7.3, & 16.1.1).
They cause location supply to be enhanced as if it were one supply radius closer to its supply point. So, just put them in the area you want supply to be so enhanced.
