Rebuilding Oil costs 1000 supply. Given that 10 Oil (so 1 point of Oil) = 9 Fuel, 1 Supply from a refinery, this point of Oil will recoup 1 supply from refineries per day. This means it will take 1000 days to "make back" your supply ...

Why would you assume that that there is no difference between port or airfield attack training?

Because the relevant skill is the same. A decision on the part of the developers to have one result in different skill-up chances ...

Expand LI by 20, expending 20,000 supplies.

As a result you get +20 supply per day. That takes 1000 days to pay back. That's more than 11 months.

<t> The table shows 0.6 / day with one factory (with engine bonus)<br/>
<br/>
The key problem is that this ignores the 1.0 / day that you get for just sitting on your butt, getting one day closer to the availability date.<br/>
<br/>
The Rep/Day column needs incremented by 1.0 to account for this ...

<t> Something seems wrong with those estimated availability dates.<br/>
<br/>
Research has a chance to move the availability date closer. It never moves it out.<br/>

One factory should get approximately 0.30 days of move-closer per day of elapsed time once it is fully repaired. 0.60 days ...

Nope, on grain. [:D]

Ergot is a fungus which grows on grain. Lysergic acid comes from ergot.
