RE: How much strength is required to take a neighboring hex?

No, presence of enemy units block it (even if they're hidden from you - and it's normal in case of forests, as you're lacking recon unit).

To swap control of hex in ZOC of enemy you should outnumber them ~3+ times (unsure exactly but 100% sure that AT LEAST three times).

Usually construction require same amount of workers that will be required to man completed building. In that case you need 5000 workers to build level 1 Refinery, while after it 4k will be ...

RE: How much strength is required to take a neighboring hex?

You need at least 4 points if using 1 point units like Sentinels (so 4 units).

"Normal" army unit with 40-50 models (like tanks or MG independent) are enough too.

RE: Another fine mess

Almost same. Well, technically I once saw losses from hunger in my unit and after it I'd panicked & saved remaining guys. Since it I rarely have hungry units (usually only when AI suddenly have flash of brightness to cut my supply[:D]). But I never lost whole units to starvation.

Very strange. I'd retaken assets from minor without war. Are you sure they don't have a troops here and you simply lack recon to see them? Because usually minors never leave assets unprotected.
