Panzerkeil Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Please forgive me if this is covered elsewhere. I was wondering if there is a way to stop the convoys if the MPP transfers are not needed any longer? Maybe this is already covered in the manual somewhere. I've found whilst playing as the Allies against the AI that at a certain point it is no longer necessary for the UK or US to send MPP's by convoy to Russia. Russia is now strong and able to use its own MPP's, while the Western Allies could use the MPP's to build up for D-Day or investment. It would be nice to be able to stop these convoys from transferring MPP's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blashy Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Yes, go to the convoy map and click on the USA and UK flags, you`ll see arrows to increase or reduce convoy. Put it at 0%, no convoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzerkeil Posted April 27, 2006 Author Share Posted April 27, 2006 Thanks, Blashy. I'm a total rookie with this game, but I learn quickly. I've spent some time reading the discussions here in this forum: I've a steep learning curve ahead of me but I'm up for it. I think the next thing for me to study is scripts and how they work and how to take advantage of them. Is there a site for guys like me, who have no experience with SC1? It sure would help me to catch up. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pzgndr Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 It sure would help me to catch up. Just read the User Manual. SC1 experience is not necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I click on USA or UK flag, I see indications, but no arrows to increase or reduce.

K Jonsson Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 You can only change the USA-UK convoys and the UK-USSR convoys. It seems that your screen shots are from the beginning of the campaign. Just wait until USA or USSR has joined and you will see the arrows =) /Kristian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzerkeil Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 In the picture above, you can see that the activation level of the US is too low to begin Lend-Lease convoys, as it is currently at 15%. As you can see, it requires the US to be at 40 or more in order for the convoys to begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Actually some convoys will begine even before a country has joined... for example the US convoy to the UK will start as soon as the US reaches 40% activation as shown in your second screen shot.
