Reinforcments are largely dependent ob advent strength in the region. The rate is RNG-based, however, so it is not known before mission when exactly they will arrive.

We're not supposed to know exactly when they will arrive, sure. But certain mission types (as far as I know) never get reinforcements, some get reinforcements independently of (and before) the hard mission success/failure timer, and others get reinforcements as the only mission timer. Where is that information?

Like, could the chart with mission types at
http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php/Missions_(LW2)
have a "ADVENT Reinforcements" added to it? (e.g., "Yes, visible timer", "Yes, hidden timer", "No")
