Understanding battle strategies...newbie question

Not quite what I meant. I meant that there is only one setting that MM uses for damage for all the battle strategies...i.e. they apply that one setting to all the strategies, and there is no variation.

I think MM could have come up with a battle strategy which would have had a different damage setting (than just the one) if they saw fit to do so.

I doubt that is the reason it must be hard-coded.

I never said it had to be hardcoded, just that it currently appears to be. If there was a data file entry available, the defaults could be changed, as the TDM-ModPack does for the ship and unit limits. AFAIK, there aren't currently any moddable data files holding the default damage numbers.
