Silly question - but how much damage plague does ?

[oleg]

Evil Fazrah just wiped out my colony in AIC game with level 2 plague. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif Planet had 12M population - all died like autumn flies. Since Population in AIC is 10 times more valuable than in unmoded AI, and I thought default 15 damage of Plague Bomb kills 15M per month, I changed the damage to 1. No difference - the whole planet died out in one turn. So, how many people dies in the event of the plague and how to mod it ?

No way to mod plague damage, unfortunately. The 15 is the damage the bomb does on impact.

The damage seems to be random, but around the ballpark of 300-350 Million per turn on a Level 5 Plague.

Edit:

The damage is 10 Million and higher per turn for Level 1,

And the damage is 50 Million and high per turn for level 2.

Has anyone figured the exact numbers for this? (base and random, if possible)

Does anyone have the numbers for the other two settings?
