I'll eventually get around to adding these to the DB reference, if Bert doesn't beat me to it

nice maq. one of my goals was to have option where the veteran prootion system would actually unlock these bonuses. but that was beyond me on how to tie it to a unit.

I've seen the promotion DB you added and it had crossed my mind to implement promotions somehow. An important part of it will be relaying the information to the player. How do they promote, how do they see current promotions of a unit, things like that. I also want the option to upgrade to different units, that is a problem to be solved with the current interface.

[EPW]

ugh promotions.

Sorry if I diddn't read everything and follow this to the letter (in my defense there's a lot of reading in this thread).

There was an earlier discussion regarding the Machine Gunner. Shouldn't he be ranged and flanking? They're not exactly the in-your-face type fighters, instead relying on holding defensive points behind the main lines unleashing their fury.

If anyone has actually held a machine gun you would see my point that they're not exactly light.

I do not feel that they should flat out replace infantry - instead add a new defensive unit to compliment the machine gunner. Something a long the lines of a grunt lol.

[Maquiladora]

ugh promotions.

Your argument has convinced me

A machine gunner ranged and flanking?

How about sticking these in a Bonus struct?

How about sticking these in a Bonus struct?

I thought about creating one for bonuses against other specific units.

[EPW]

I want structs for everything.

[Maquiladora]

Go ahead and do it then
