The unit maintenance matrix?

January 15, 2006, 21:45

Does anyone know how the number of free units are calculated?

I gather that it is based on the size of your cities and their number from what I've found on my own. Anyone who can help out with this?

Also. Is it just me or is defending very easy?

Yeah, it's here:

Unit maintenance explained

As I didn't see an article covering the unit maintenance and did see a few questions about this subject, I thought about researching it myself. I hope it will be useful to some people. The first section of this article is about the ingame information of unit costs and how to read it...

It's heavily dependant on difficulty level. Unit cost is just vicious on Immortal and Deity levels. Interesting to note that the AI actually pays more unit cost than the player at Emperor and below.

Defending cities is easy, defending your improvements and defending while still keeping up in tech, that's another story.
