recycling question

[phoenixheart]

Hey, I've got 2 recyclers and when i send them out to recycle certain fields (I am a bf general so i have the special options), by the time they get there, there are no resources left. Why is that? They just vanish or some1 else is getting there first?

You need to increase the speed of your fleet to be able to steal other people's debris. In fact most of times the person which makes the battle he/she also sends recyclers to cleanup after battle, and the time is short between battle and collection of the filed.
