Research bonus?

Post by Cheesehead »

I've been playing a fierce, 2 player PBEM game. I'm playing the Allies and it's 1943. The last two turns I've received a large "bonus" on research that I didn't pay for. Something like 30 extra research points to spread around. Does anyone know why this happened?

Did you build all your units before you updated research?

If you update research before you build units then you use up unused factory points.
Otherwise I would say I have never see that. You also could have had the increase in US factories to x3 giving you more production points and just missed using them to build units.

I used all my build points and I did spend some on research, but no where near the number of research points that I was able to spend.

I wonder if this is the source of the Soviet super tanks and WA super bombers.
