I just started two wars, the first was 4400 mi. away, so I knew I could not use air wings. So I sent in three LR divisions, everything was fine the depots were built, the divisions arrived( I thought), and when they were ready to move I attacked a city, but...I had no weapons, so I've had to abandon that war.

The other war, which was around 1500 Mi. away, I had the same situation, except this one I took with Air power.

So what is going on, they get airsick?

Ah ha! I know what the problem is, Supply Units, you might have the airport and the depot in the enemy country, but you don't have Supply Units to actually supply your forces. Hope this helps, good luck fighting wars as well. In the next long distance war you fight, be sure to airlift Supply Units as well.

That's not it...they are shipped with an over-supply of material, typically enough to take 3-4 cities. Once they proceed to their first targets, then I airlift in the supply units.I have only seen this issue with countries that are farther away.

Then heck, I don't know, maybe you don't have air transports or enough, but I'm unsure o this situation.
