Supplies are placed onto the battlefield to allow the construction of Structures by Engineers and Garrisons by unit leaders. Level 3 Anti-Tank roles may also use them to construct an AT-Gun.
Supplies need to be within 60 meters of the intended build site for other structures. If the supplies aren't fully utilized, enemies could destroy them, making them unusable.
Sourcing[]
There are three ways to obtain supplies:
Infantry[]
The Support role may place a box of 50 supplies from his kit. This ability has a 5-minute cooldown. This cooldown can be instantly reduced by half if the player moves to within 50 meters of a Manpower Node.
Commander[]
The Commander may air-drop 100 supplies anywhere via the tactical map. This costs 50 munitions and has a 2-minute cooldown.
Supply Trucks[]
Any player may drive an Opel Blitz or GMC CCKW supply truck on the map. Each truck carries two crates of 150 supplies for a total of 300 supplies. An empty supply truck can be resupplied at a friendly Ammo Depot.
In Warfare mode, supply trucks cannot drop supplies in the two rows/columns nearest to the friendly HQ. When attacking in Offensive, supply trucks cannot drop supplies in the two rows/columns nearest to the friendly HQ unless it is still enemy territory. When defending in Offensive, supply trucks cannot drop supplies in the sector (that is, the 2x2 grid space) associated with the final objective.
