A big No! from me on this.

That will just make it easier for the Borg to swallow base after base and move on to the next one.
It gives a hugely outnumbered country a small, yet distinct chance to recapture a base. Of course this only works if the original captor doesn't choose to defend what he just grabbed, a phenomenom I often withness with smash&grab hordes off all countries, particulary the ones avoiding combat on the way.

You are correct now that I think about it but it happened tonight where the bigger country took the base after the outnumbered country just took it. :salute

Not the same 37mms should be used I think more along the lines of a 5 inch gun, similar to the guns you find at strats just player usable :salute

One or the other.  You can't have one gun be both.

No. Protect what you take at least until town pops up.

No, the buildings in the city come back on a timer.

As far as the ack guns go, I don't know.  Probably not, but I don't know for certain, and I do know that the ack guns come up in conjunction with the supply convoys driving showing up, so it's possible.  I do know for a fact that base ack can be brought back up with supplies, I don't know if that works with a town.

Actually, I think (maybe) it will bring the AAA back up quicker, like mass LVT's at a port.  Of course, the ack comes back up in the city anyway when the base is captured. 

I have not tested it.  It could be a myth like the "reset the maproom" thing.
