Artillery Testing

RE: Artillery Testing
One thing to keep in mind is that some ops losses are no doubt taking place on the attackers part. However, the defending units seem to be able to repair as fast as attackers can damage them, still too early to render a final judgement though.

Turn 4:
Another bad one for the attacker. 2 Combat, 4 Support units lost. No vehicles have been lost despite the combat reports. 1 Unit gains 1 point of disruption, all artillery units gained 1 fatigue.

RE: Artillery Testing
Well on first blush it looks like we has a bug ...EDIT: Maybe not T3 -> T4 360 consumed
...would like to see the rest of the seven bombarding days..
Stuck the numbers in an Excel sheet
Non bombarding Average Defender Supply consumption = 60, High =70, Low = 36, Total = 360

RE: Artillery Testing
Final analysis:
Seems that defending units are using less supply under bombardment than just with having the enemy in the hex. It is also apparent that with an average of 45 supplies used per turn, this would be a very, very long siege. 415 days if we use the Turn 7 supply level.
Also, the defender is able to replace losses as fast or faster than the attacker can damage them, all of this while suffering no fatigue, no disruption and on morale hits (which all 3 should be hit). Also, the attacking units seem to be suffering more damage and disruption than the defending units. This just seems backwards to me.
I suggest the following changes in artillery:
1. The bug fix.
2. Morale should have a chance of damage from heavy bombardment, without regard to fortifications.
3. Units should have a chance to be disrupted by bombardment.
4. Units should have a chance to suffer fatigue from bombardment.
I'm not going to suggest adding in extra damage or unit losses. The above fixes would be more than enough to properly simulate artillery. Artillery's biggest effect was pschycological, not necessarily in actual casualties.

You used the wrong value it should be 18718...
Needless to say -
During the Non-combat test during those seven days the defender consumed 60 supply points on average...360 points and total...single day high = 70 ....single day low = 36.
Daily differences: 63,63,61,36,70,67
During the combat test the defenders supply cunsumption actually decreased by about 15-20 points per day... 259 total ...and 44 per day on average...
Through 5 turns - Daily Differences : 38, 44, 43, 50, 43, 41
Hopefully JWilkerson will address...its working as programmed but probably not as intended.
Edit: Good Summary by the way.

Hong Kong Supplies 17695 vs No Combat 17320 = +375
Total Supplies 18677 vs No Combat 18595 = +82
Supplies T7 18677 vs Supplies T6 18761 = -84
You used the wrong value it should be 18718...
Needless to say -
During the Non-combat test during those seven days the defender consumed 60 supply points on average...360 points and total...single day high = 70 ....single day low = 36.

And I still get the numbers wrong, I'll edit the post to correct that error as well. [8D]

RE: Artillery Testing
I think you need to:
a> Turn off FOW - otherwise the results are bogus.
b> Have a 'control' group that fires into clear hex with no forts - maybe move 1/2 the defenders into a neighbor hex and fire 1/2 tubes at that hex

He was looking at both sides - FoW was not an issue.

FoW was turned OFF for the 7 day v 7 day tests.
If anyone else wishes to test artillery, feel free. I warn you it is quite a bit of work to get these numbers. I have no doubt that you will get better attacker results in a clear hex, but as treespider has stated, this test has already proved that bombarded units are using LESS supply than units that are not attacked at all. You have to read the entire thread and all the results to be fully informed on the final outcomes.

RE: Artillery Testing
Thanks shark artillery needs to be redone because at present it is useless, In open hexes it works but in forts or bases it does not work. With all due respect to everybody testing something is very tedious and time consuming so if somebody like shark test something say thank you to him as he is wasting a lot of time to prove something for the community.
