RE: How to build recon buggy or APC

<t> Two things might be happening. The first is if you have only discovered the Recon Buggy Model but not researched it. If you have researched it, then perhaps you do not have an OHQ for it yet. If this is the case, try and see if it lets you build an independent unit. Go to Raise Form and click ...

RE: The logistic System is a gigantic mess

If you are having logistic issues you cant resolve, a more helpful approach would be to post pics on the forum and invite friendly forum posters to help solve your puzzle.

RE: The logistic System is a gigantic mess

<t> I haven't had any of these issues. Having played and enjoyed games like Factorio, Im no stranger to resolving thoughput issues. Maybe that has helped. I dont mean to sound harsh, but I wouldnt like the game to get easier to accomodate those who are having trouble with it. If some of us arent ...
