supply question

I'm playing the Typhoon scenario as the axis and I just started turn 2. At the start of the turn the 1st and 7th panzers were in Vyazma and could not trace a line of supply through axis territories. The game marked these units as out of supply.

I didn't think the axis had to worry about supply until after turn 11.

Did I run into a bug or am I just misunderstanding the supply rules?

Were they out of supply or out of fuel? (You may need to zoom in to see the difference in the icons.)

Thought it was supply but I could have been wrong - I went ahead and finished the game so I can't double check it.

By the way, the game itself is great.

Axis units can't be isolated, but can go out of supply. OOS is bad, but ISO is much worse.
