I am running my first NSB campaign as Italy. And the new game mechanic really change they way I used to play. Especially with the new railway and supply stuff.
I used to blitz though North Africa easily but now this area has now railway or supply hub, my army stall at the gate of Egypt and Tunisia without supply. How may I solve this problem? The same happen to my invasion to the Russian Caucasus region where there has no supply hub to capture. Thank you!

You could build an extra port just behind your line on the border with egypt. That brings the supply back to your front line.

As for the caucasus. That should be less of a problem, because both you and your opponent are in the same boat there. So the relative strength between you and your opponent should be unaffected. You both just fight with lower org and higher attrition there.
