I have 35 comms at 51% BPs and I moved 34 comms at 100% BPs adjacent to the 35 comms. To build a wall unit with the 35 comms is still showing 57% BPs required and I do suspect that the wall would not be finished if I tried it anyway.
Shouldn't the 34 comms at 100% BPs adjacent to the 35 at 51% BPs provide an assist to complete the wall?

I belive that the bonus only affects killing strenght not build.

Well then I have been grouping these comms to assist takeovers and to build a barracks for nothing except that they can be used to complete.
Anyone who has built anything knows the value of a helper.
Suppose you are up in the rafters and you drop your hammer?
Don't get me wrong, I knew a carpenter who weighed himself down with a heavy magnet on a string for just an occurrence;
but I'm moving this to suggestions.

If you already have 34 workers building a wall its not sure 35 more will make it any faster (depending on the seize ofcourse). Id say its just as likely they only get in the way

LOD
IMO your mixing reality with the game pessimisticly because as a matter of fact on the game map they are in each others way .
Optimisticly in reality a helper and a mason would have plenty of room to maneuver and the helper could carry the stone to the mason from a pile, mix cement if it is used and even help the mason carefully lay the heavy stones.
The only way to reflect that on the map is with an assist bonus similar to the attack/defend bonus.

What I want to know, TR, is why you are protecting yourself from ME with those walls! Jeez, you have REAL enemies in that game!

PS:

No sense changing my style because I'll regret it when I don't have you for a neighbor.
