Make sure you have access to a port or city. If they're still low, make sure they aren't clustered together. Sometimes, the area you are in have a limit on supplies due to infustructure or you're in enemy territory.

You would need to up the logi(docks/infrastructure), it's not that they are not getting supplied, it's that the infrastructure in the area can't move enough into the area to support the troops in that area. If you look at the logo tab, the tool tip for the area will tell you what the bottleneck is, ie: which connecting provinces.

Solution is use less troops to cut down on supply use, or improve infrastructure. I'd suggest just using less troops. I only really improve infrastructure in areas I know I will fight over a lot. Finland/Norway is worthless really, so don't be investing to much there.

Switch to supply map and each area tells you how many troops it can supply, which is based off it's infrastructure. As per above poster I suspect you have too many troops in northern Norway.

I found that Oslo wasn't a port, its port was a hundred miles or so to the west - problem solved.

I'm also having trouble with Norway, and the video does not seem to cover my issue. I'm playing Canada. I took over two naval bases before heading back to england to resupply and let the allies hold it until I get back. Though they are not being supplied either. It seems the game thinks this area can only be supplied from inland and won't use the captured ports? I'm not sure.

I'm going to guess that the port is damaged and not functioning.

That makes sense, not sure why I never thought about that. I'm new to the game. Since im Canada I don't take over land so I can never repair that ♥♥♥♥ I guess.

You could try asking for control of the state if it's controlled by an ally and then move the repair to the top of your construction queue.

Since Norway capitulated it's in the control of Germany. I think I have to free the whole area before Norway regains control of the state, or a free norway. I don't think Germany will give it to me haha.
