Counting supply

There is a supply production pointed in every single region. How does it transfer to supply points in the units? I one read in loki's AAR from WIA that you have to multiple supply production by five to get information about supply points in the unit. Is it true for all ageod games?

yes, its a standard rule.
The difference is between those games like WiA and AJE where supply is produced in places and you either need to move to it, or move the supply by wagons and the other AJE games where supply will flow along a network of cities, depots. ports to close to where its needed and you man only need wagons to then ensure it reaches your combat armies
glad you found our old WIA AARs useful

Thank You very much. As far as I understand and remember supply wagons in both type of the game collect supply as well. In ROP/RUS/ACW – they are final stop for the supply stream , for WIA and AJE type they collect supply even from neibouring regions?
As for the WIA AAR – Loki – you and OneArmedMexican should really consider working in media, you have fantastic narrative skills

Just to be on the safe side and take advantage of the extra combat bonus attached supply carts give, always have one or more attached to your stacks, unless it's a small light force in the mountains. When the supply carts are empty send them back to the closest depot/town which has accumulated* (stocked) supplies for them to replenish and back forth.
*this is a small detail I have found out the hard way... if the depot is empty, you might not necessarily get the supplies the next turn... your carts and units will replenish from the accumulated supplies; don't just send your stacks to resupply on depots, send them to ones that do have supplies stocked
