How expensive is fully upgrading B-4 Howitzer to level 12?
Cumulative cost levels 1 → 12 for B-4 Howitzer: ~268k industry, ~268k energy, 780 elite items, 45 badges. The main bottleneck is industry and elite items — hit the milestone levels 5, 9 and 12 first rather than evenly smoothing intermediate upgrades.
