Default Re: Country Training

As stated early on in this thread, Country training numbers are a "sensitive" issue. I have been through this every year for nearly 8 years and I'll say what I always say. .... If I gave those lists to 100 people to put in what they feel are the "correct" values for all the nations we have in the game I would get 100 different lists back and the "debate" would never end.

If players feel the numbers for the Legion are too low you can adjust them with MOBHack. The Legion has myths attached to it that may or may not be true in reality . We built those numbers for all the nations then went over and over them and feel they are reasonable but we also know there will be people who disagree. (See my remark about 100 people and 100 different lists ) We accept that.

We give people the tools ( MOBHack) to make adjustments if need be. If anyone feels a formation needs a boost they have the tools to do that but rest assured not everyone will agree. We tried to be as fair as possible and always have with the numbers we put in the game.

Thank you for responding,
I'm convinced you are right and I know it's really hard to make numbers work with reallity, because I once tried for another game and I must admit the results were pretty bad . The problem with number exists also with MBT caracteritics, ...etc... (and let me tell you your system is really better than the SP2 one, and the french OOB is the best I have never seen, and I have seen a lot).
So as you said, you gived us Mobhack (Thanks) to do changes by ourselves, maybe that I will use it, but my purpose is not to "save" the only Legion, but to see if with precise informations (and others) we could not build something like a "mathematic" way of attributing country training...
I think you have already done it, and I'm probably the 100th guy who drive you mad with those stories of country training, so excuse me for that , thank you for your really good job (I enjoy more SPMBT than some new games) and I hope I could give before long a country training system, which, even if not perfect could avoid the "emotional" aspect, which was at work when BTW I wrote the Legion should have better experience values...
