Supply problems in Logistics tutorial
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1951252829

The instructions say to 'ensure that your units are always in supply'. But I have three tanks near Alexandria that are out of supply, and it's not possible to extend supply to cover them. Am I missing something?

[edit]
I've just noticed that it says to place a new supply hub at Alexandria by using the 'truck and arrow in the upper game bar'... but that's greyed out, it doesn't work :(

I think it's ambiguous wording in the instructions. As far as I can tell, supplies come from offmap, flow along secured railroads and some highways, and you can't build a supply hub that isn't near a railroad or connected highway, and therefore you shouldn't get the 'build a supply hub' message until after you've taken out the nazi infantry division blocking the railway.

The same applies to the enemy - if you can get behind their lines and seize and hold a hex of railroad in the right place, you can sometimes choke off half the enemy on the map.

Thanks for the response, Areetsa. Hopefully the devs will see this and adjust their tutorial... it doesn't do to have tutorials that are confusing!
