Mayhemizer, IIRW in raw WIF or playing with some optionals, you need to build with oil resources if you are building units different from infantry or cavalry type.

If I am right , then, since you seem to be using 18 non-oil and only 3 oil for production, if you had already selected at leas one of those types, then you don't have enough build points originated from oil, because you need all three of them for your supply unit.

If you have built a plane for example, then you don't have enough oil originated BP for your supply unit, IMO. Sorry, I have not been able to download and check the file, so I am guessing in the hope I can help.

At first that CW built plane and HQ, but I tool it from reload and tried to build supply unit as first unit. It did not work either.

No bug. Three oil is just not enough to build the supply unit. Due to the 0.75 in PM CW needs to use 4 oil for production.

Never understood this rule that way but it's true:

quote:

Supply units are a new gearing limit class. They cost 3 build points and may only be built if all the resources consumed in producing these build points were oil.

I guess because the very few times it crossed my mind to buy one, the Production Multiple was 1 or more but this is not the case.
