Hitpoints and Firepower
I always wondered what effect these two things have on the game. I know higher firepower makes units more effective against unfortified targets but that's all I know.

To quote the manual
"Hit points represent a unit's relative durability in combat situations"
"Firepower indicates the number of points of damage that a unit does each time it successfully scores a hit"
Think of a boxing match consisting of rounds.One fighter is a power puncher.The other is a pugilist.The power puncher can do as much or more damage with 1 shot than the pugilist can do with 5 or 6.The only thing that matters to me in a MP game is getting a good ally.Nothing else is as important.......Xin Yu -
To be scecific, a unit can take 10 times the hitpoint value hits of damage.
Examples:
a unit with a hitpoint value of 3 can take 30
hits.
a unit with an HP value of 2 can take 20 hits."Cease fire! Please! Cease fire. What a dreadful waste of ammunition!" -- General Horatio Herbert Kitchener
