Ok, so I did Tilset (no mods this run through), and I had to pull back to the Duchy of Warsaw as they are now allied with France. I have spent most of the summer of 1807 re-furbishing 5 Corps there. Going good, those blockade runners can do wonders. Now it is the first week in October, and the supply stocks of Warsaw, or at least the supply levels of my rejuvenating Corps stationed there are diminishing (once again). I do not know what to do, seeing as I would have to travel all over Prussia to get back to safe territory. I cannot build depots in Poland, so Napoleon and a good chunk of his Grande Armee are going to be in serious trouble come the snows/blizzards/harsh weather/whatnot. I have three Corps plus Grande Armee in Warsaw, I have two in Thorn. I am not playing with easy supply (!), but this is really beginning to trouble me somewhat in how to not STARVE and decimate my Armee for another year. Austria are starting to once again become a threat, so I only have Murat, Bernadotte, Marmont and the Army of Hannover (plus a few new divisions) in French territory. How do I avoid becoming starved during the 1807/08 winter in an allied country, far away from hope (and causing another war with Prussia)?

Play with easy supply on or just don't sign peace, supply just doesn't work because the general mechanism, a very good one I must say, was built for a 2 sides game (aacw). It just can't deal with the allies, neutral, enemy territory variety plus de mess that peace treaties create. It's bored.

This needs be fixed as a priority if supply really does not move.

In base game, you *should* be able to build French depots through Prussia. Can you? If so, have you?

What happens in the decsision screen when I try and build a depot. I have enough money.

The supply in Warsaw, Ney and Augerout are nearly depleted - its mid Oct.

And Prussia and Austria are both neutral and you can't move through them?

I can move through them, but surely they will declare war?

No. they probably won't. As the game is, supplies aren't flowing through either of these countries. Warsaw can't support that size army. You'll have to move some back asap.

Why would you think that?

If you have the rights to move through a faction's territory, doing so will not cause a CB.

Ok, so how the heck do you invade Russia?

There needs to be some sort of vassal status after some peace that treat the country as one's in terms of supply network and prod : prussia after Tilsit or Austria after schonbrunn (but not pressburg) would fall in that category for example.

As is one has to start retreating most of his troops back to hannover before signing Tilsit for example. And my hunch is that creating westphalia would kill any chance of being able to wage war in the east later on.

Supply us the mai game breaker remaining. There lots of tidbits that could be better, bug this a big problem.

After seeing all this, I enforce foreign access while the peace treaty is in affect. I'm going to enforce foreign access indefinitely until war exists, which could be months or years after the treaty has expired
