Sure seems like Buildings/Strats/Acks regen too fast

Ive been playing around in bombers lately, and it sure seems odd that the bomb run can take longer to start and finish than the buildings you bomb take to get rebuilt.

I don't know about anyone else, but it seems to me that when you take out some strategic site, like fuel/ammo/troops/HQ(dar) it should stay down for a lot longer than it currently does. Same goes for hangars and ack.

I always love it when the target I bomb it literally back up and running before my bomber even gets back to base to land.

Same goes for ack that magically reappears beneath my tank not just a short amount of time after I blew it up.

The way I understand it Bota is that when the first object gets destoyed at a base it triggers the automatic resupply trucks.  These trucks leave a supply dump on schedule to arrive at the base every 10 minutes.  These trucks carry a mix of stuff and dont necessarily fix all the damage done to a base...it could be ack, or building, or fuel, etc.  If you want a base to stay down longer get somebody in position to kill those trucks.

That really doesnt apply to raids on enemy HQ.

I think the regen needs to be slowed way down.

And if you park your panzer on the road the truck will just come driving along and ram you off the road and kill you.

I'm just gonna guess here but I don't think trucks in RL were moveing any panzers anywhere much less toss them around and killing everyone inside.

forgot to mention that the truck also takes no damage whatsoever from ramming your tank.

Well....if you check, I believe that there are trains or trucks or something that heads to HQ when it is hit on top of the C47s that fly in to resupply.  I know when I see enemy at the HQ I jump in a C47 and run multiple runs until dar comes back...but that is just me.

Increase down time? Hit the City and Factories first.  That's what they are there for.

flatten city and all facilities and HQ take longer to rebuild

EACH goon that supplies a facility or HQ reduces down time by 30 minutes
