There is one idea that poped in my head, but I don't know is it good, nor should it be added in my MOD. So I need some comments.
It's about Cannons.
First let's compare Strenght of bombarding units.
Artillery (Bomb. 12, ROF 2, cost 80)
vs Cannons (Bomb. 8, ROF 1, cost 40):
Against defense target of 6,
Cannon takes out 0.57 HPs
Artillery takes out 1.33 HPs
Against defense target of 4,
Cannon takes out 0.67 HPs
Artillery takes out 1.5 HPs
Against defense target of 10,
Cannon takes out 0.44 HPs
Artillery takes out 1.09 HPs
Catapults (Bomb. 4, ROF 1, cost 20)
vs Cannons (Bomb. 8, ROF 1, cost 40):
Against defense target of 4,
Catapult takes out 0.5 HPs
Cannon takes out 0.67 HPs
Against defense target of 3,
Catapult takes out 0.57 HPs
Cannon takes out 0.73 HPs
Against defense target of 6,
Catapult takes out 0.4 HPs
Cannon takes out 0.57 HPs
.
So, at the end, Cannon is more then twice weaker then Artillery (thanks to lower ROF), plus has lower range.
Also, Cannon is NOT twice better then Catapults. Two Catapults do more HP damage then one Cannon.
.
Thus, I think about changing cost of Cannons to 30 shields (from 40 shields).
What do you think?
Would that be OK?
Balanced?
Gamebreaking?
