I guess we could design a cargo plane to get ressources from the plains and send our planes in the mountains.

You can't really move a lot of ressources with planes.

 And we cant land aircraft in the mountains.

 We could use an airship tho... They are rather good at landing in smallish areas and carrying cargo...

Modern airships are good at landing in small areas.

Old ones, not really.

the railroads of the plains work fine. We have held them for what? 10 years? plenty of time to repair damage.the fighting a couple turns ago was still only at the edges, so I suppose it didn't cause enough damage that couldn't be repaired in a couple of years.

After we capture the mountains, I guess we are going to get a road across them, so we will be able to send trucks there as sheb said, and improve trains to get resources from the plains ( by the way: do we actually need 5 ore? if it gives us no benefit, we might save the revision for something more useful.

( and cargo plane? to move ore? I don't think it is viable)

Unless we start making a bunch of C-5s and C-17s we won't be doing any logistics by air.

Blahblabhlah, still make superior planes that land backwards and start on shorter lack of runway than a damn autogyro and can be used to do anything.

Our CV22 cost 6 ore. So if we want to field any kind of ship, we're going to need ore. It also make for cheaper heavy tanks.

Kot, the plane you proposed is nice, but there is no way we are getting a logistic bonus out of that. The plane is small and ore is heavy. and one point of logistic means a lot of ore being ferried around.

Do we have decent trucks on that note?  I kinda got the impression the ones we had were rather expensive.

A good river gunboat tank is going to cost just slightly more than a tank if done properly.

B-b-but we will have lot's of it!
It's good! It's superior! It's quiet! It can land and take-off anywhere! It can carry six people or 200 kilos of bombs! It's light! It's fast! It's turny! It's still built today! It's a fucking Fieseler Fi-156! We can use it to carry spies! Or do anything!

We could revise a pipeline for the oil from the plains.

That sounds like more than a revision to me.

Nah, building infrastructure is a revision.

and those are good points. I don't think I'll vote for it, but it has its usefulness.
Which is not bringing ore to the capital.
