Is there a way in NSB to tell your ''allies'' to not help you ?

[BaronNoir]

Simply said, this is a problem for me since Vanilla. I do not find my ''allies'' in large land war very useful when they are actually on my front (since they typically do head-on attack that wreck their armies instead of, y'know, letting the ennemy do the same attacks but on me)

NSB was supposed to be able to keep your ''allies'' for your supply, was it implemented ?

Yes. Supply hubs have a button, far left in the menu that appears over them, to toggle supply for allies on/off.

It's more of a kind of, the ai is stupid and will continue to attack even if you have the supply hubs turned off.

Yeah. In general, the AI isn't very smart. It can be good as a distraction, or to simply throw more warm bodies at the enemy, but we don't expect much from it. :/

There is a method I use, but I believe it's only available to the faction leader: request expeditionary armies.

So, for example: as Germany, create an expeditionary army for the Bulgarian-Turkish border, and add all your Balkan faction members' divisions to it. They will only give you what they would feel free to send away, but those are the divisions you don't want leeching all your supplies in the Don bend anyway.
