Strategic bombing and Supply

Post by Rojas4 »

I have a question looking through the manual wasn't quite clear to me.

My opponent has just captured city (not a port) in england during sealion. Now, if I could bomb this city with a strat bomber would it interfere with his supply?

Would reducing the city to red put him back at 1 and yellow 2 supply and so on? Or is the supply of his troop irrelevant regardless?

Thanks!

if you reduce the city production to red and the city dont have a port, the units in the city and all units have only supply from this city reduce they supply level for 0, if is a city with port reduce the city supply level to 1. y hope yo understand me, me english y to bad

You would really need 2 STR. And don't forget to escort them. This early in the game it would probably take 3-4 turns to get it down to red. And you would need to hit it again with something every turn - not necessarily a STR - or it will regain supply.

Well as you know all too well now it didn't prove possible. :D

But for the sake of knowledge, say I knocked the city down to yellow. Would this effect your supply or is it red or nothing? :?:
