Mesabi Posted August 27, 2018 (edited) I've done some math on the troop capacities of various vessels. I've found that carrying troops is actually pretty easy, IF you have a specific troop carrying ship, with a high cargo stat. Here's a Graph Troop Capacity Graph by North White, on Flickr Raw Data Spoiler Class (1-10) Cargo (0-15) Raw Score Total Troops Carried 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 5 0 2 2 10 0 3 3 15 0 4 4 20 1 0 1 5 1 1 2 10 1 2 3 15 1 3 4 20 1 4 5 25 1 5 6 30 1 6 7 35 1 7 8 40 2 0 2 10 2 1 3 15 2 2 4 20 2 3 5 25 2 4 6 30 2 5 7 35 2 6 8 40 2 7 9 45 2 8 10 50 2 9 11 55 2 10 12 60 3 0 3 15 3 1 4 20 3 2 5 25 3 3 6 30 3 4 7 35 3 5 8 40 3 6 9 45 3 7 10 50 3 8 11 55 3 9 12 60 3 10 13 65 3 11 14 70 3 12 15 75 3 13 16 80 4 0 4 20 4 1 5 25 4 2 6 30 4 3 7 35 4 4 8 40 4 5 9 45 4 6 10 50 4 7 11 55 4 8 12 60 4 9 13 65 4 10 14 70 4 11 15 75 4 12 16 80 4 13 17 85 4 14 18 90 4 15 19 95 5 0 5 25 5 1 6 30 5 2 7 35 5 3 8 40 5 4 9 45 5 5 10 50 5 6 11 55 5 7 12 60 5 8 13 65 5 9 14 70 5 10 15 75 5 11 16 80 5 12 17 85 5 13 18 90 5 14 19 95 5 15 20 100 6 0 6 30 6 1 7 35 6 2 8 40 6 3 9 45 6 4 10 50 6 5 11 55 6 6 12 60 6 7 13 65 6 8 14 70 6 9 15 75 6 10 16 80 6 11 17 85 6 12 18 90 6 13 19 95 6 14 20 100 6 15 21 105 7 0 7 35 7 1 8 40 7 2 9 45 7 3 10 50 7 4 11 55 7 5 12 60 7 6 13 65 7 7 14 70 7 8 15 75 7 9 16 80 7 10 17 85 7 11 18 90 7 12 19 95 7 13 20 100 7 14 21 105 7 15 22 110 8 0 8 40 8 1 9 45 8 2 10 50 8 3 11 55 8 4 12 60 8 5 13 65 8 6 14 70 8 7 15 75 8 8 16 80 8 9 17 85 8 10 18 90 8 11 19 95 8 12 20 100 8 13 21 105 8 14 22 110 8 15 23 115 9 0 9 45 9 1 10 50 9 2 11 55 9 3 12 60 9 4 13 65 9 5 14 70 9 6 15 75 9 7 16 80 9 8 17 85 9 9 18 90 9 10 19 95 9 11 20 100 9 12 21 105 9 13 22 110 9 14 23 115 9 15 24 120 10 0 10 50 10 1 11 55 10 2 12 60 10 3 13 65 10 4 14 70 10 5 15 75 10 6 16 80 10 7 17 85 10 8 18 90 10 9 19 95 10 10 20 100 10 11 21 105 10 12 22 110 10 13 23 115 10 14 24 120 10 15 25 125 Thoughts?

Capt Wolf Posted August 27, 2018 And that was the idea behind the formula: not to make it impossible, but to make it a consideration in ship building and raid tactics. Thanks for showing the math! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LM71Blackbird Posted August 27, 2018 Well, I guess I'll just have to build another class 10 then... Thanks for the calculations Mesabi! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bregir Posted August 27, 2018 It seems to me the only real issue are the extremes at the lower end. (BTW, what is stopping a class 0 from having five cargo points?) Not so much in terms of game balance, but how do you explain a class zero carrying 20 men? :P Must be quite a barge! ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mesabi Posted August 27, 2018 @Bregir using the stat calculator, it wouldn't let me punch in a value of '0' for range. Maybe a glitch? Either way, I suppose that only makes Class 0s more ridiculous Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
