There should be a land convoy that carries resources to the capital. Right now, the current game will just let resource teleport to another country for land locked nations, so there is simply no way to block enemy supplies unless you conquer a nation that trades with them. This is weird because naval convoys can carry resources but that isn't the case for overland supplies :(

Not sure if I get your point...

As long as there’s a trade route via land through neutral counties:
How would land convoys enable you to block them?
To block off countries you now have to block land routes by allying or invading neutral countries the trade route is going through. How would having land convoys change this?

I guess that... when you import or export resources by sea, it uses convoys, which can be attacked at sea.

If you require trains to import resources, then... maybe those trains should be able to be attacked by aircraft ? At least when the train enters bombable territory - no bombing trains in neutral countries.

To make landlocked nations more vulnerable to land raids. Right now, countries like Mongolia has no reason to worry about resources being blocked since land trade will just teleport goods to you, thus bypassing the need of supply zone which is total nonsense in my opinion.

With land convoys, resources has to go through supply zones which means you can use air bombers to choke their infrastructure.
 
Well..in case resources will be transported back to capital by train in the future there is reason to stratbomb rail assets and capturing important hubs...
 
I would like horses to be introduced later as a resource species and not as something abstract as occurred in the ferrivary issue in this dlc, I already determined several fronts and in a certain aspect the speed that the divisions could go and had a certain importance in the war

Yes, and when it's implemented we must be able to do Caravan Robbing among many more cool things inevitably getting bestowed on us by the yet to be denounced MtG-spirit.
