Thanks for the words of encouragement. But I've taken a day off already.

I have supply issues in Burma, Thailand, Sumatra, Java, SoPac. NoPac is good on supply simply because I focused on that region, losing a chunk of my transport fleet in the process. I have fuel issues everywhere but Singapore, which seems to be attracting EVERYTHING (resources, supply, fuel, oil) and causing me problems now, plus Palembang. Truk is OK right now but the CarDivs steaming down will chew that up quickly. I have ground units, Air HQs, etc., sitting in Manila, Singapore, Babeldaob, Truk, Tokyo and other Home Island cities for months now. Base building requires engineers requiring their transport everywhere. Throw in pilot management (training and replacements) and air group management (missions, training, fatigue, morale, replacements, air support). Resource transport is another issue as Hokkaido is still increasing in resources, as is SRE.

So why am I in the mess? I have realized these issues for a long time, but when I decide I'm going to deal with them, a huge sigh overcomes me and I tell myself next turn. It's simply too much work.

Perhaps there's a better formula for auto-management of some of these activities? If so, I haven't found it. I love the battles, but I'm just not cut out for the rest. This game is a huge amount of effort to be successful at, more effort than I'm willing to do. This is the longest I've lasted in a WITP game. I kinda forgot why I stopped before. It's a truly awesome game, but I'm not willing to do what it takes to make it competitive. It's my limitation.
