Does ammo resupply work the same as in previous versions of SP? I'm playing the Lightning scenario and am trying to figure out how to resupply the Germans woefully inadequate ammo supply. I've noticed that by placing my unit on the ammo dump, I get small amounts of ammo each turn, is there a way to increase the rate of resupply? Do I have to be in the same hex or will it work from an adjacent one?

Any help/advice appreciated!

Units will supply when adjecent. There seems to be a set resupply rate and it is low (2 - 4 rounds per turn). There isn't anything you can do about it.

OK, maybe just a bit faded.

It will work from an adjacent hex. One thing I noticed in this scenario is the ammo packs drop in such a way that you can get some units adjacent to two packs at the same time. This doubles the resupply rate.
