Pop an email or phone HTC.  You not only get 1 answer, but also you get the answer.

Drive to a town...shoot one ack and one building...start timer...ask people to not kill you because you're conducting an experiment and will leave quietly once complete...question will be answered.

45 minutes for town buildings. 20-25 minutes for town ack could be wrong on this one but nut too sure

i don't


according to htc, town buildings are 45 mins, field guns are 2 hrs (which is reduced by auto-resupply).. if the town guns are the same as field guns, you may be right. However it's always seemed to me they are timed like town buildings..

Try asking not to be killed.  Would be like asking not to be vulched because you want to check your town status.

If it were me, I'd fly a 110 over and gun down a building near the edge of town...  Then fly far enough away that the ack has stopped shooting and bail out.  Grab a snack and a drink and wait to see when the building pops.

True, that part of my reply was a small joke.  The rest is still valid - why ask something and get answers like "I don't know...I'm not sure but...I think it was like..."  Just go and test it for yourself.  If it's that important for you to know, you should do a little work and find out for yourself.

those ain't town ack. i'm almost certain they are different just from experience...  ack always starts popping same time buildings do...

whatever the case, the htc help pages need some work
