Trains and Convoys
« on: March 23, 2017, 07:39:55 PM »
I hoping the Trains and Convoys will be introduced into AH3 soon.  They are great for Attack Gunnery training.  Is anyone able to tell me the progress of this?
Thanks,

I know HTC will bring the trucks and trains back-they said they are working on it.

It's been a while, can someone refresh my memory as to their purpose?

I do remember trains be nasty buggers with the ack.

Trains, truck convoys and barges used to be part of the base resupply chain. If you destroyed them before they arrived at the base, it would cause a delay in repair of destroyed objects at that base.

I think you could increase down times w ~70% by killing the supply vehicles, it was useful sometimes when you could keep ack etc down a bit longer so troops could get in.
