- None of the 7 river regions between Tuscumbia and Cairo, IL are blocked. [Hover mouse to see number of additional ships required to block]
- Automatic Riverine supply moves 1 region/day in Fair or Mud, 1 region every 2 days in Snow. [thus, can move 7 regions in a turn in Snow]
- Cairo is the supply source.
No bug WAD.
FYI:
I see, thanks for replying so quickly.
However, I am still puzzled. As I said above, even with Cairo in CSA hands Tuscumbia still received supply. Every second turn about 250 something. After all, I spent quite some time eliminating every possible source of supply nearby as thouroughly as I could think of. And then there is still the issue that that supply for Tuscumbia appears in the sealanes supply section of the Hostlog, as I have reported. And that supply stopped for Tuscumbia only when I removed all transports from the sealanes. Can it be that blockading a harbor is not the same as denying it supply coming by river? In the Wiki it clearly states that an entrenched force with a cannon is enough to stop riversupply. I also read somewhere in an old thread (hm, was it Grey_Lensman's supply primer after all?), that
one riverine ship is enough to block supply running past it, as long as it is no transport. But this may have changed now.
I just did one more thing. Changed nothing, just moved the Union fleet out of the shipping box. Tuscumbia received no more supply henceforth.
Thus I believe it only received supply through sealanes. I don't believe that a force in the middle of the continent is supposed to receive supply by seaships. Hence I can only think of either a bug or a flaw in design.
In several subsequent turns the following inland harbours were noted as receivers of sealanes supply. Not all of them in the same turn, though.
