Can anyone tell me if these stats are correct as ive seen on other threads that two of the same bonus types dont add together....

I have the ENC Armoured Unit (750 prize) -3% upgrade cost
I also have the cement factory - currently upgrading to lvl 3 but for now im getting -2% build/upgrade cost from that.

Does this mean im getting -5% off the cost of upgrades or have i been cheated and im only getting the benefits of one of these items?
Would just like to know to save me time/real money pushing for top places for units with bonuses in the future.

Many thanks.

They should work ok for you although the calculation isn't made in such a way as you will see it being exactly 5% off more that you will get 100% - 3% = 97% - 2% = 95.06% therefore getting 4.94% off your ORIGINAL cost for upgrades.
Having said that they may round down resulting in your upgrade amount being calculated pretty unreasonably as 4% off total.

Also definitely keep going with the cement factory as they pay for themselves many times over in the long run!

I'm still trying to figure out the stacking math. For example, for health regen I have:
-20% Bridge Jumper unit
-20% (some unit I cannot recall right now)
-26% (or is it -30%???) faction bonus. Regardless, we have all 6 health regen upgrades

My profile shows that I have a total -53% health regen bonus. So what's the math? Yes, I am incredibly happy with it as I now regen for my next WD or boss hit in ~11:30 instead of 22-23 minutes. But just can't figure out the actual stacking equation they are using.

Anyone figured this out?

I do know that if you have more than one of the same unit you only get the bonus credit for one of them. If I had two Bridge Jumpers, I'd still only get one single -20% for them both. That makes sense.
