Why am I losing?

Post by Klauss Marcellus »

I've got higher supply, higher ammount of troops, my maintaince and traning is at 100%, i'm using supply trucks and artillery.
And i'm using infantry to fight garrisons (close combat).
And my infantry is year 24, with higher Fortification/Soft/Hard/Close attack than their obsolete and weaker year 21 infantry.

I even built 1 supply depot and 1 arfield 2 hexes away from the hex i'm getting wrecked.
Not to mention i'm using an AirForce such as strategic bombers and interceptors.

So why I my troops are getting slaughtered in seconds while their troops get just a small ammount of damage?

If you can post a savegame, it might be easier for people to look at it in game than from the pictures. Not sure what people are using to host large files these days...

Sadly I cannot attach savegames. How do I do that?

And when I try to manually attach the save game, the website says its an invalid extension.

SOLVED: Minister decreased military salaries, thus decreasing my army's morale.
I'm not sure why he decreased it to lower than 30% when I was on a positve budget tough.
Never forget to turn your minister's spendings off.

You can't attach savegames, these forums don't have storage space for files of that size. That's why I mentioned something to host large files. I know some people just used their Google Drive account.

Glad you got it figured out.

Thats the most important setting in this game ever:
put both to max and never ever forget to disable the ai minister on these items!

If they got red markings, they got 50% suply and stop fighting for some reason. City is just faster with giving suplies then the hex suply might show you.
Maximising military effectiveness will suply troops faster, but thats not the main reason why you were loosing.

What you showed was the hex suply, not the suply of the units.

If cities werent dumbed down, smaller cities wouldnt only provide less defence, but also less suply recovery. Now garrisons always have 100% suply, like cities always have 100% defence. Altho i doubt they remember to dumb it down or if its just broken, like entrench build up.. As shown many times perfectly able to identify issues :roll:
