If your precincts are cut off from the rest, then you have no way of supplying them with the product and the negative effects of this are immediate. Supply lines are essential to your empire, providing a path for you to get supplies out to your precincts while ensuring your money has a safe trajectory back to you.īreaking a supply line can really disrupt an empire.
