Point system for fighting units
Hi Kammers!
KaM is a game where the unit strenght is not in numbers but more in quality fighters, so it seems. So, if there was ever a point system to be introduced in a future release, I suggest something like this. This seems fair, based on raw resources/effort from serfs (not on fighting statistics):
corn coal iron gold wood points worth
0 - 0.5 - 0 - 0.5 - 1 = 2 militia
2 - 0.5 - 0 - 0.5 - 1 = 4 bowman / lance carrier
2 - 0.5 - 0 - 0.5 - 2.5 = 5.5 axefighter
0 - 4.5 - 2 - 0.5 - 0 = 7 pikeman / crossbow
6 - 0.5 - 0 - 0.5 - 2.5 = 9.5 scout
0 - 6.5 - 3 - 0.5 - 0 = 10 swordfighter
4 - 6.5 - 3 - 0.5 - 0 = 14 knight
Not included is the availablity for resources/ spam facor, which favors leather over iron troops. Although the market negates this mostly (depending on the lenght of the game).
This list shows also why the scout is rarely seen in MP games. Maybe only a better vision is enough to fix the unit, to finally do where he's disigned for (hence the name). But thats maybe something for another day.
