Advanced Armoury = ++Energy

Having watched NS2HD[499] A thought came to me: You never really see armouries upgraded to advanced outside of the base. AdvArm is a tech structure pure and simple, and has no battlefield purpose.

So what if upgrading an armoury also increased it's energy pool / recharge speed, allowing it to resupply marines faster and for longer.

    the devs originally introduced this mechanic to shorten stalemates with marines being locked down in their base. and i have to say it actually works: i recently saw a lerk simultaniously killing 3 people right next to an armory using spores (this obviously only worked because there were many other life forms attacking as well).
    however, i sometimes see commanders simply dropping a second armory in the base as 10 tres is not that much.
