Gun caliber

Post by Draken »

How does it affects combat in the game? Or its effect is included on the unit stats?

Currently I suppose it doesn't...

In theory, it would affect unit statistics since we've standardized on ballistic artillery unit ranges but many of the unit statistics are "first impression" values that have been input. There really is no firm data I can look up to determine for example how many pts a units should have on soft attack and with over 200 artillery pieces at this point, there simply is not enough time to closely inspect each unit's stats. Heck, games like Harpoon or Panzer General are still having their unit stats discussed today. I'm sure that our equipment file will be greatly modified in the future as ppl take the time to evaluate each unit.

For Ballistic artillery, yes, I've given George the info to look at but he's not yet had a chance to comment on it.
