Better Results from Resupplying Industrial Complex

[SmokinLoon]

First off, I think the new strategic changes are great.  The previous settings offered little or nothing in terms of value regarding the "health" of a country.  Now, there is a panic when a dar-bar is seen heading towards the HQ and/or factory complexes.   

As for the wish: I'd *really* like to see more credit given for resupplying the city and factories.  The -4 minutes seems a bit weak.  I like the ripple effect that the factories have on the fields out on the front, but I believe the effort needed to resupply the factories may be a bit steep. 

I wish for a -6 min or even a -8 min off the repair time per load of field supplies to the city and factories.  Please consider it.  Thanks.

Please not. Four minutes is fine IMHO.

And put a cap on the maximum number of perks gained by it, a veteran player should not be able to make a 5-10 times more perks in a given time by resupplying then by doing combat - the latter one should have the greatest reward.

If the strats can be resupplied too easily it is a massive disincentive to bomb them.

Very much agree. Thank you.

If folks value the vitality of their strategic object's impact on front line bases, hopefully they will defend them in force from the likes of bomber nerds like the 91st who will go after them.

If the City is down to %40.... do the math at how "easily" it can be resupplied with the current -4 min credit.  Now do the same ratio with a -6 minute credit.  The number of field supplies needed to get the city back to %100 is staggering, and the number of field supplies need to get the HQ back up isnt much better.

on the other hand if bases keep getting rolled more often than before people are gonna say the hell with it and quit.

Exactly.  I'm just asking for HTC to consider adding a few minutes to the repair time, not a drastic change in the entire scheme of things.  Once the city is hammered to a speakable amount (less then %50), it takes a massive number of resupplies to get anywhere.  Also, I think another thing that may help would be to also show a time factor along side the % factor in regards to repair of the city and factories.  I spent what seems like hours this past weekend dropping supplies on the city just to help the HQ come up and it didnt seem to help one bit, or at least I couldn't tell.  No stat moved.  About 45 mins after the HQ went down it finally came back up.

I like the changes, I just think they may be a bit far on the spectrum.  If HTC would allow for more credit with the field supplies on the city and factories it would at least allow for the extremes to be brought back in a bit.

  hey gents, im a bit confused on the new strat system. towns strats (town factories), hq all can be independently resuppyed? or do you have to suppy one before the other?

we'll up and defend in force if you fly at historic alts and speeds. deal?

That's what the .dt command is for.

All can be resupplied independently.

I bet thndr and his crews are using "historic" alts.

But a question that comes to my mind.. why should bombers in AH use 'historic' mission profiles when nobody else does?
