Math question - 12/5/2007 12:39:13 AM

The manual describes how supply is calculated, but I can't get the numbers to match.

for instance the manual states that if a unit is at 45 readiness, it would use 350 points to recover.

How is 350 calculated? I thought that the first 10 readyness costs 50% of basic (100) and the remainder costs 100% (200). This is 300 points. Where does the extra 50 points come in?

Could someone clarify this section? It seems like there are two or three things that are being described but is munged together somehow.
One is supply requests that can vary from 0 to 150% of basic. The other seperate thing is cost of restoring readyiness. Another thing merged in is the attempt to fill supply to max.

I am good at math so must have the wrong perspective on something.
