Data Charts for Units

Post by Gerry4321 »

Hello All:

Is there a set of charts, e.g. tables of some kind, that shows the properties for all units in the game? I know you can CTRL-click on a unit to get some of this data but I would like to be able to compare units w/o having to click on each one.

Thanks,

Gerry

There is nothing like that built, but you could generate one from the squads file.

Are the Squads and Master_Squads files the same except that the latter has rows inserted for labels like "Axis Armour"?

Thanks,

Gerry

I believe that the CSV file is generated by the XLS, but the CSV is the ultimate arbiter as it gets loaded by the game :)

There are a ton of fields in the file. Let's say I want to get an idea of how one tank would match up against another. I assume I would extract the 4 armor values fields for each tank. Can you tell me a small list of essential fields to get an idea how this tank would fare against the Gun of the other tank?

Or maybe if you have a front armour of 50, what value in what field for the other tank's Gun is needed to penetrate that at 0 - 1 etc. tiles.

I like looking at tables of numbers. It helps immersion for me.

Thanks,

Gerry

Thanks very much but I have a PC. I am using the ASL Chapter H tables to give me an idea for the moment. Some tanks are famous but I don't know all the vehicles in the game so this is why I am using any charts I can find to give me a general idea.
