I've almost finished a big re-write of my Invasion Amerika scenario and just freed up about 100 events.
I wish to create a better simulation of the U.S. supply situation based on the losses and re-capturing of territory.
In the prior version, the U.S. started at a level of 100 and rapidly went down from there based on Axis gains (i.e. taking certain cities.)
I'm now toying with the following:
Keeping the U.S. supply losses based on the Axis occupation of certain cities (losses range from a
-1 to a -5 depending on the city).
U.S. starts at 25 supply and has a 80% chance, each turn, to have a +3 gain in supply.
My playtesting has showed the U.S. hovering around 1-3 Supply for the first few months of the war and slowly growing up to around 20 by turn 25 (usually the do or die point for the Axis). Axis supply around this time can be from the low 20s to the high 30s depending on Soviet entry and Axis/Allied naval victories.
In your expert opinions, does this seem sound?
Currently, supply losses are tied into 34 U.S. and Canadian cities but with no gain in supply if the U.S. retakes the city. Creating Narvik-esque events based on each cities loss/recapture would take far more than the 100 free events.
Before I had about 5 free events; now after winning the Event lottery, I'm at a loss on what to do next :D
