A negative 10% modifier equals .9 In other words, it is 100% - 10% A positive 10% modifier equals 1.1 That's 100% + 10% So, using your original example: 0.92*0.85*0.93*0.96*1.60*1.60*0.71*1.64= 2.08 2.08 = 208% or put another way 100% + 108% That's the sum-total effect of all of the other modifiers ...

Probably the first thing to check would be the unit counter. What color is the little square in the top right corner of the counter? If it is green, then the unit is receiving all of it's supply requests. Any other color means that supply is less than demand. Screenshot_1.png You could also click on...

Supply Consumption is the units' required upkeep. So you could think of that as food, medical supplies, spare parts, etc If a unit can't meet it's upkeep, then readiness will take a big hit. The offensive modifier is a bit more strange. A unit uses supplies during each "round" of combat. I...

There are a couple concepts that I think could help. 1) Supply Depots have 5 different modes, and you can switch between them. In "regular" mode, they only boost the distance that supplies can be transported from the Supply Sources. However, they can also be configured to "deplete&quo...

Grogs just can't help but have strong opinions on everything. There's no pleasing us.

That said, my BIGGEST complaint about the game is that it's costing me too much sleep!

In the newest version it should be even easier then the release version to accomplish this ' Cover the Ports' strategy if you so choose. Could you elaborate on this a bit? The only successful tactic seems to be placing a land unit on every coastal hex adjacent to the city's fort. I'm wondering if t...

I'm not sure you'd want to weaken the Union's capabilities. Most of the time, the Union should be able to capture 1 or 2 major port cities in 1862. That should be the most likely result. Increasing the cost might be a good idea, but that would only serve to weaken the Union rather than opening new c...

Ideally, defending coastal cities as a CSA player should be possible , but not practical . How to accomplish this, and whether it is a worthwhile use of the developer's time, I am less certain. As it stands now, I don't defend the CSA coast because I honestly don't know how. I could have an entire c...

If you want France to keep more of its income, you can adjust the % sent to CSA in the convoy map. You can enter any value between 0%-50%.

Unless you're playing on harder difficulties, then you don't need to worry too much about making perfect decisions on research. It's better in my opinion to be a bit playful. Just don't neglect the primary ones like Infantry Equipment. One idea: Cavalry Equipment and Cavalry Tactics. You can field a...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Locarnus<br/> The current mechanic just does not make sense. Having a structural defect from slug thrower infantry being carried over to laser armed infantry.

<t> I think I disagree with you on some fundamental points<br/> <br/> 1) I don't stress too much over Structural Design unless it is particularly low. If a unit has low design values, I'll usually deploy a small number of prototypes and throw them into combat to get the Base Design value up high. Wi...

Are you sure? This tech has always worked for me. +100% production

<t> This question of Strategic Destruction with missiles is an interesting one. I feel strongly that it should be a viable strategy, but it needs some counter-play to not be game-breaking.<br/> <br/> One idea that hasn't been mentioned: Cities could make a defensive roll against incoming missiles.

<t> MG's are a bit more expensive to build and use more ammunition/energy during combat. In exchange, they are cheaper in manpower and significantly stronger on defense.<br/> <br/> But really demiare hit the nail on the head early: Formations will always have more regular infantry than MG's.
