Default Re: What sets Support Points?

Its a campaign - so your enemy points will always be "XXX". Setting the enemy sides points is therefore completely irrelevant in campaigns. The enemy force will always be in proportion to your core's current value plus any support bought, modified by battle type and posture.

Your own points value is simply a maximum buy for battle number 1 is all in a campaign. Its irrelevant post that point - you get build/repair points instead.

If you don't want the support then simply don't use the points, or use only a little of it - the enemy buy will be against what your force value actually is. Points not spent on support are therefore zero value to the AI.

((Core+support)* battle type modifier) => enemy buy points

720 support points on a 600p core may be because its an attack or an assault?. Its always useful to be able to buy support arty or engineers etc if attacking, after all. Support is optional, the points value allocated is simply a maximum.
