Supply and reserves matter in tactical war games because they control how long a player can hold a position and when the player can meaningfully respond.
Supply is not decorative
If supply is just flavor, it does not shape the battle. In a serious tactical strategy game, supply changes tempo, durability, and the cost of holding or pressing an objective.
Reserves are about timing
Reserves matter because they force commitment questions. Do you hold a force back for the moment the line bends, or do you commit early and risk having no answer later?
That is part of why Four Star General emphasizes supply and reserves. Those systems tell you the game is interested in command decisions, not just unit movement.
