  • The Index of Power and You - A Comprehensive FAQ [Warning: Math + Walls of Text]

    This is not correct: only types of upgrades are concerned, not levels of upgrade-types.

    So a fort level 5 (fort building type) counts as 1 upgrade and a damaged recruiting agency (agency building type) with only 1 hit-point left as well. This implies that you can only have 7 upgrades (excluding the capital that also counts as an upgrade type) in a province. This implies that upgrades usually do not add a lot of weight (3.5 max (with capital 4)) compared to the dominant morale factor (16 + 6 bonus max). However, you only require the presence of rudimentary building types to max out on the upgrade factor. This is relevant.

    Less relevant: the formula disclosed by Bytro way back would allow for negative score (very low morale provinces without or few upgrades). A minimum of zero however is applied.

  • How to greatly Increase Defense - Flower Defense

    Is the delay of units reset or shortened once units are in combat or do you just mean that the delay cannot be prolonged anymore once the units are in combat modus?


    What is the max delay time? was there not a trick to set a really long delay time?

  • [S1914] Release Notes - 2021-07-20

    • Ranged units, such as artillery, did not automatically attack enemy units within range immediately, effectively allowing enemy units to operate within its range for up to a few minutes before being shot at.From now on ranged units will commence the bombardment of enemy units as soon as they get in range, in case their fire command doesn’t prevent such actions.


      Actually, the end of Hit and Run is announced here.

  • What the heck is province order?

    Province order + current_morale = 102 = target_morale


    102 is the target morale when all the variable morale factors sum to zero.

    Province order combined with the current morale is always 102, so together they are constant. It would be best to either mention the current_morale as a factor as well or to omit province_order as a real morale_factor. It is just confusing now; latter option would be better.

  • (unofficial) survey: improvements to be made to revamp

    Legacy will soon disappear and there is no stopping this. Since some changes to the revamp are likely to be made before it does, it is a good time to let the Devs know what needs to be changed about the revamp (new UI/user interface). This small and UNOFFICIAL survey has been set up to better identify and asses the issues the community has with the new UI and to point them out to the developers.


    Please fill out the small survey. It is not required to answer every question.

  • REVOLT VALUES CHANGED

    The new revolt values were short lived. The revolt values have been simplified and reduced today.


    The values are now linear and depend no longer on damage, but strength, that contrary to damage increments proportionally with every unit of every unit-type. This results in suppressing revolts completely with mere infantry in provinces with very low morale (even a 2% province can be completely suppressed with 20 (91%+ morale) inf). Compared to the previous system it is now a lot easier to completely suppress revolts in general.


    The garrison-strength takes into account either the attack-strength or defense-strength based on what value is higher, resulting in both cavalry and armored cars adding 2.4 strength (at 100% morale/condition) to the garrison strength. It thus depends on the max strength of the garrison.
