Yep, this is an awesome tool...well done Honestus http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gifWith the preponderance of units in MTW an application that enables users to compare stats is a real godsend.

The faction stats also print out very well, so they are great as reference guide when you are playing.

I do have a comment regarding the "Honour" column. In the strategy guide this value is the one that is labeled as "Morale" in the individual unit descriptions in the book, and this confusion of labels is probably just one of those old STW holdovers in the text file. How it is modified during combat is described in the guide on pages 58 to 62, for those who might be interested. Basically it is the starting morale of the unit, the higher the better.

What I can't seem to find reference to in the strategy guide is what is shown in the http://www.totalwarassembly.com/waracademy.cfm tables as the "morale bonus" column. The value is zero for most units, but for instance is 10 for a trebuchet crew, +2 for Feudal Sergeants, and -2 for Urban Militia. In the "crusaders_unit_prod11.txt" file this is refered to as the "Moral Bonus" (is that just a typo, did they mean "morale?"). Can someone identify how the game engine uses this "moral bonus" value?

I was unclear as to its use, but saw it in the text and thought it prudent to include. I would like to know if it is just an old holdover or whether it should be kept.
