Probably a dumb MobHack question

US OOB 1/90 onwards, wanted to make a 6 man squad so copied the 6 man 2 saw, m16 law 72 that ends at 12/89. change law for the at4/136 thing. saved recalced saved. however the new 6 man is 22 cost, the standard 4 man is 23 for 1/90. what am i screwing up?

Which unit number did you use as a base? - it is impossible to troll through the OOB simply trying to guess the unit in question - which is why we say in the TO&E sticky on error reporting to give us the unit slot number when reporting possible errors.

Hmm - let's take a wild guess (since we don't have the slot numbers) - but I bet you changed the mech squad #479 to an AT-4 from an M72 and changed nothing else. And are now comparing your new unit with #480?.

The squad in #479 has 6 men, the one in 480 has 4 - 6 is greater than 4, so will tend to cost more.

If you left the M72 count at 6 rounds of AP, well the squad in #480 has 4 HEAT rounds to the 6 in the one copied from slot #479. 6 is more than 4, and may make a point or so difference as well.

If you get an unexpected result - then examine the data and see what differs. In this case, head count and ammo load will probably be the ones?.
