Abbreviations...

When a game ends it lists a bunch of abbreviations for column headers but I can't find any explantions in the manual..


Would anyone have what all the abreviations mean after a game ends?

Thanks,
Munkie!

Hmm, check the common sense section of the manual. ;)

List presents each squad (SQ), and every jock that took part in the battle, his status and hit points (HP). Then things like Bounty (killed enemy jocks and mission special rewards), Payment (for doing the job), Upkeep (monthly costs), Salvage (whatever you can salvage from the battlefield if you win), Special (a salvageable enemy titan if you're lucky - and if you don't utterly destroy them all). Finally there's the status of the squad file, if it is updated/saved (custom) or not (special).

Yeah... that would be common sense... somehow, on some other planet.

Anyhow, I was talking about the 3 experience (I am guessing) categories...

They all end in XP.... I wanted explantation on these "common sense" categories, and how are they calaculated.

MXP = Movement experience points
CXP = Combat experience points
OXP = Other experience points

These earn experience when you use these particular skills in battle. If your jock stands still, never shoots or scans. They would earn only a very small amount of experience. Jocks that do a lot in battle like dodging, jumping, shooting, launching flares, scanning would earn a lot of experience.

You can even check your experience earned during the battle by looking at your information screens.

Well, common sense and the manual (pgs 35 and 36) say exactly what they are, along with the hq. The hq section of the manual also hints at this (pg 14). But that's only on my planet I guess :rolleyes:

Its all in the manual. It was loving written and read and checked and rechecked during the production of TOSWS. Please read it. You will find the answers to your questions and if for some reason you misplace it. You also have a nice online manual that you can access from inside the Game menu and the options of the Titan Command Center.

I didnt misplace it...

I do use it for a reference...

I could not find that information in it...

It was not a question of common sense , I could not find the information so I asked for help...

I just didn't appreciate the manner that the help was served.

For someone that is new to a community, it wasn't a very welcoming tone.

Thank you Rosary, as always you were helpful.

I'm really sorry you can't take a joke. I'm even more sorry you didn't find the help to be in a suitable manner. Maybe it just wasn't my reply...?!
