Low ammo / fuel issue.

[Liebchen]

I have been playing the complete Market - Garden maximum effort campaign as the 21st Army player and it seems the the main core XXXth Corps units suffer often from low ammo and / or fuel supply. What does one do to counter that? Again stack them with their parent formation HQ, put them out of action for some time or rotate ( pretty insane idea with the snail's pace of the advance towards Eindhoven given ... )or maybe just get them somewhere nearer the MSR? 101st and 82nd Abn paras also have to bear with low ammo levels. Red Devils alike ...

And what actually does that mean if a motorized unit unloaded and fighting on foot has a low fuel status? ...

Proximity to their HQ immediate is the only cure for low supplies. In the case of low fuel, I believe that being within nominal range of the HQ at the beginning of the midnight turn will get them a visit from the fuel trucks automatically. During all other turns, it's a crap shoot, but proximity to the HQ increases the odds.

As for airborne units, they must suffer from low supplies until the meet-up, since the supply values for their drop zones is so low. That's just one of the hardships of being in the airborne!
