Hello everyone.

I just want to ask this simple question.

How can I compute the upkeep cost of my army, from weapons to ammunition maintenance cost.

And finally, does the quality of a certain weapon or ammo affects its upkeep cost?

According to the game news, higher quality weapons require more ammunition for training. However also having higher quality ammo reduces the amount needed. Also, higher quality maintenance products will save you money as you won't need to use as much, despite them costing more.

The upkeep of army is the cost of soldier/officer salary and maintenance products. Purchasing weapons/ammo are not included in the monthly cost. You can see everything in the defense pages.

From the game tool-tip.

Total Defense Cost
This is the total cost of the defence forces. It is the combined cost of the defensive forces, the offensive forces and the strategic forces. It includes the cost of maintaining all facilities and weapons, salary costs for the army and the cost of materials that are needed for maintenance. This amount does not include the cost of purchasing new weapon systems and facilities.
