Spreadsheet:TW - All Infantry stats

**R'as al Ghul** · 12-22-2006, 12:40

I'm still trying to get a grip on the units' functions. Some battle results still puzzle me and I'v converted the unit_description file into this table.
I thought it may be useful as a reference so that we don't need to open the file and search for values all of the time.
I've left out some of the data: secondary weapon stats (only pikemen have them), tech type (mostly melee_blade) and damage (is marked as not used anymore). I'll perhaps add the skeleton compensation factor and the attack frequency.

Edit:

; stat_pri_attr
; primary weapon attributes any or all of
; ap = armour piercing. Only counts half of target's armour
; bp = body piercing. Missile can pass through men and hit those behind
; spear = Used for long spears. Gives bonuses fighting cavalry, and penalties against infantry
; long_pike = Use very long pikes. Phalanx capable units only
; short_pike = Use shorter than normal spears.
; prec = Missile weapon is only thrown/ fired just before charging into combat
; thrown = The missile type if thrown rather than fired
; launching = attack may throw target men into the air
; area = attack affects an area, not just one man
; spear & light_spear = The unit when braced has various protecting mechanisms versus cavalry charges from the front
; spear_bonus_x = attack bonus against cavalry. x = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 or 12

Please note that only a spear_bonus_x with a value of 4 or 8 is used. There's some space for tweaking here.

Interesting.

Nice work!

Great work R´as!

You're all welcome.

Conclusion #1: Peasants don't have the spear attribute and hence don't suffer a penalty when fighting infantry.

keep it up! Modders will drool...or they wont, and people with no modding knowledge will be astounded at your level of brilliance.

Hello,
I don't get your comment, I'm sensing slight irony in there but it's lost in translation for me. An explanantion would be appreciated.
What I've done hasn't much to do with modding but with reading and reformatting the content of one file which I wouldn't exactly describe as brilliant but time-consuming.
