Disband Units and maintenance costs for units

Post by kokono »

Hello friends, I read in the manual as follows:

"Since every turn upkeep cost units (except for naval units in or adjacent to a friendly seaport), a situation may arise where disbanding the unit is the best option. Disbanding the unit immediately removes It From The Game. To disband, click the disband button. "

My question is at what maintenance costs are concerned?

Where can see these costs in deciding whether a unit should we keep or disband?

Thanks and sorry for my English.

Every unit has unit attribute figures like Ground Attack, Defence, Attack Range...etc

The one that should indicate how many PP (Production Points) a unit costs when in service is:

Production Upkeep. The number of PP the unit cost to maintain per turn.

But you have to ask Johann where that is hidden. :wink:

Thanks for your info, but I think it would be a good choice for a new patch, deploy in the "statistics" or the "toolbar" information concerning the total PP required to maintain the army, together with the existing PP stored.
I think in this game the cost of maintaining the army and the supplies are very important, but nevertheless I find it lacks information to the player.

Thanks

It would be useful but at the moment Firepower doesn't have any plans to create a patch for CNAW. We'll happily release anything they supply us.

The total upkeep cost for your units is shown in the Begin Turn Summary screen, but yes it does not show upkeep of each individual unit. To read the upkeep cost of each unit you need to enter the purchase screen because there all unit types are listed.

I am currently working on my new game World Empire Live and it is unlikely Napoleon will get another patch unless you find me a new pack of serious bugs in it ;)
