Default Re: Next Question

Hey Bill, I know you directed the question to Camo but if it helps you along here is part of the answer.

From what I've seen...
1) a unit has to be adjacent to the ammo dump
2) order of resupply occurs in order of unit number eg B0 gets ammo before B1
3) amount of ammo reloaded is dependant on size of warhead so a lot of 5.56mm ammo will be given out in a turn or a couple of 155mm shells (I've seen slightly depleted infantry get FULL reloads of all weapons in a single turn and about 5 155mm rounds reloaded in a turn)
4) the dump and the unit have to be at rest for a whole turn in order for a reload to occur eg unit move adjacent to dump, next turn unit does not move, next turn reloads occur NOTE: I might be wrong about this part
5) I do not know what suppression does to the reload process
6) I don't think it would be possible to do the low ammo para drop and then full reload since the only way to lower a units ammo would be to edit it and at that point I think its max ammo load would be the number you entered to lower the ammo load

Again points 4,5,6 are a bit fuzzy. 1,2,3 are fairly rock solid.

If time was of the essence I hope this helped.

Keep up the astonishing work WB. Really enjoying your scenarios.

Jazz
