OK. Yesterday afternoon, rooks were outnumbered as usual and were being attacked at 52 and 53 in the NE corner of the NDIsles map. The attack on 53 was primarily in the form of buffs which were porking the field so that planes couldnt take off and defend 52.
Seeing this, I figured I would up from 9 in a Goon with supplies and resupply 53. Aproaching 53, I see a smoking field with explosions going on around it and drop supplies. As expected, some of the damaged buildings are repaired. Since there were no enemy fighters around, I landed and rearmed on the hotpad then launched, grabbed 1k and dropped the supplies just to see if they would actually repair the field.
Sure enough, more damage was repaired. I continued this until I finally got shot down by an enemy fighter (about 5 resupplys later
)
Now, I dont think this should be a viable tactic. Goons should not be able to rearm from a damaged field. Anyone agree or disagree? Was I mistaken in thinking I was repairing the field? I never got it 100% fixed but then again, the Nits had tons of strato-buffs overhead porking the field.
