A bug or am I missing something?

Post by L47r0 »

Was just playing the Bulge scenario vs Axis. Dietrich advanced aggressively and overextended himself. I cut his supply lines leaving 2 panzer divisions cut off. I checked the supply overlay and the areas that they were in both showed as red. The next day (19th) the 'out of supply' badge did not appear on either unit and in the first impulse the northernmost unit crossed the Meuse giving Axis an automatic victory. Have I misunderstood the supply rules or was this a bug?

Axis units don’t need to trace supply to remain in supply until the 19th. The supply map shows spaces that cannot trace supply, not out-of-supply units

But Axis units do need to trace supply starting on the 19th - so if they were out of supply at the start of the 19th they should have been marked OOS and unable to move.

So...either something happened to restore supply, or there is a bug. We'll see if we can reproduce it here, thanks L47
