Losing against f***ing ETHIOPIA
So I've just started playing through the tutorial. All is going well until my divisions start losing strength. Now my 13 divisions are about to collapse against just five enemy divisions, despite me using (apparently ineffective) air support for the entire war.

How do I replenish division strength while on enemy soil? I don't want to lose the ground I've taken. In the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ tutorial.

Did you select air support only? Or superiority and bombing as well. I went with one of each and breezed it!
You are suffering from a lack of supplies, improve infrastructure or redivise your division deployment, too many divisions in a region will mean that these divisions are not resupplied and as a result they will suffer attrition (significantly affecting their combat effectiveness), spread them out (perhaps pull some back into another province even) and try to encircle enemy divisions as much as possible.

You arent resupplying them, you are having problems keeping that up. Check to make sure you have naval superiority to ensure supplies can be dropped. Check your production to ensure your building enough supplies to meet demand. Most of all you need to ensure you have a port, if you lost the port, you wont get ♥♥♥♥ for supply.

It's a million times better than the HoI3 tutorial though. Some of the details could be better explained though, like re-supplying divisions. I don't think it even mentioned that and it's absolutely vital to keep a war going.
