Turns out that you can resupply units simply by selecting the hex they are on and tapping the refill button that pops up underneath your resource count. Happens instantly, so you don't have to divert any trucks or anything. Works for units other than your own too, so if somebody could occasionally resupply mine and Funk's trucks, that would be nice.

Sigh, Steel is coming through slowly...
Started building some Oil Factories so I can produce some Fuel. But the question is.
What mats do I need to build and supply ships, or can I build them, supply them at somewhere else and then send them to battle...
I am going to be producing some U-Boats for basic coastline defense, so yeah...

Do we need a transport hub in the middle of the uk someplace with built up roads etc and allot of fuel production to organise extra resources and ship them out?

Sounds like a good idea personally...
We don't need independent Provinces, we need specialization with small adjustments. Making an area which produces a ton of steel, a ton of clothes and so forth, specialize in something and aim to produce that in quantity. Ship them to the Transporter Province and then there we go a fully working country that does epic shit against supers...

While Bay12 isn't a great community to play heavily co-operative games together (Looks at a few others which he had played with bay12ers) this allows for freedom and asks if you could work together, working together isn't mandatory but it is greatly helped...

Fake Edit ::  I also see this happening. GB gets strong enough we start taking colonies, from that we have a few leave and begin administering those colonies, the provinces they leave behind are handed to their neighbors so that it doesn't Idle there and is greatly boosted with those who are active, the continue to build larger with their boosted start up, ship needed mats to the colonies and the colonies begin to take more and more land by land combat which in turn gives GB more so that new players can come and replace experienced players heading to the colonies when it is needed over there...

That could work.

Also, from what I gathered, it only make sense to specialize in units, as we get a bonus to represent factories experience. Material production doesn't have to be specialized, so while it's cool helping each other when we have extra mat' (I already shipped 63k of concrete to RedKing and 2k of Steel to ya) it's best if each province is broadly self-sufficient, so that a single loss doesn't incapacitate large chunk of our war production.

Yeah I don't mean that all 75 buildings are dedicated to it but like a spare 10xX or so just for one thing that produces for the country. X being what is needed to produce, like Fuel is Oil and Petrol Refinery, that 20 buildings dedicated to making Petrol. Steel would be 3 and so forth. Maybe less of course if adjusted to the right amount needed. Just something that boosts our ability to spread out our resources. I have 100k of wood I am not using at this moment and produce 30k/hr, just now rebuilding a few to other things like Steelworks and soforth.

You can always ask your neighbors (no need to send things further out) if they want some. Also, please refuel my trucks.

At last I got the game working. Anybody left in China? I'm ruling the Jining province, there's a couple of guys around me and a total of 5 guys in all China according to the country tab. I'm "derarbeiter" in-game.

EDIT: apparently those 5 players are China's ministers, there's a hefty bunch of other players too.

Thank you. I'll be on partway through its return trip, so you don't have to waste anymore fuel on it.

Anyway it looks like the province below me is not connected to Bay12, the person is Polish and has bad understanding of English, they need to use Google Translate. SO if anyone is Polish or knows how to speak that language, please send out a non-broken translation of letting those folk know who we are please...

Evaristo, I'd suggest you leave China and join the Great Empire of Bay12. If you want to be in that part of the world, you can take HongKong or something.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

Shucks, and I was halfway through with the mission list. Are there any good spots left in Britain proper? I can only find Scottish provinces that are way up there.
