Destroying Resources a Legitimate Tactic?

[Kiriath]

Have you ever seen a tree grow out of a stump that would be useful for anything in any short amount of time, in real life?

Have you ever just poured gasoline on a stump and burned it out?

I agree that it should take longer than a second to destroy things, and I think that applies to everything on the ground, piles, logs, stumps, rocks, etc.

burning a stump out with gasoline? lol have you actually tried this?

Heh.. was gonna say.. this does not work. The closest I've seen is a product where you have to drill giant holes deep down into the stump and fill them with a special mixture of petroleum products, and burn it down that way.

Hell, a gasoline fire won't even kill an ant mound.
