Hi
Just started playing this game and find it very exiting and focused. Good work!
I have read the manual a couple of times and played the tutorial and two campaigns and I have two questions.
Ambush-can I have a defensiv stance while ordering an ambush? I am thinking that sometimes if the order to set an ambush fails but the enemy comes along I would rather not want to see my troops fight a normal battle.
Supply-I'm still a bit confused as to how the supply works. Sometime a region is green(ish) and then turns red and after some time back to green.
I find it hard to fully understand how it works and if I can influence this somehow.
Also,after capturing a town,having 100% control over the region and having three supply wagons with my army I'm not allowed to build a depot.Is that right?
I think there was something else about supply but I can't remember right now.

Hi Hidde,

Thanks for your questions, because there was an interface bug: The build depot icon was disabled if a city was there... This has been corrected for the 1.02 (posted this evening).

Now on with your questions:

Setting Ambush in Defensive mode and auto shifting to Offensive if it is set properly: Hey thats a clever idea! => added for the patch.

Supply filter red/green: This filter dont show the absolute amount you get, but the excess you have in a region. So a green region that see the arrival of a big army will switch to red.

How it works: supply are mostly generated by structures, and a bit by the countryside (and only when its crop time!). So to get supplies, be sure to control the structure(s) of the region (the tooltip indicate how many supplies chits you will get).

A supply chit provide 5 general supplies (food&water) AND 2 ammo supplies. a supply chit can migrate to an adjacent region if the army need it.
supplies chit are never accumulated.
Supplies chits generated by the countryside have only general supplies, and no ammo supplies.

Thanks for your answers.
Keep up the great work with the patches!
