FWWC and Explicit Supply

[Volcano Man]

Right, the one way you can pick and choose when to distribute supplies with ES units is to keep the supply units in T mode when you do not want them giving them out. However if the supply range the ES unit is too large, then once you bring them out of T mode then everything in range will gobble up the unit. :( The best way to avoid that is to pull back some units that you specifically want to supply and then push them back up when they are resupplied, but that isn't always possible, of course. On the other hand, unintended units drawing off supplies is probably not completely unrealistic either.

The trick is making the supply range large enough that you don't have to go to each unit, but not too large that you end up supplying units, and I found that (IMO) the ideal range is something like 2 hexes. But yes, that is another issue with ES units in general (more units added, and limited amount of control of supply distribution).
