Hi! I'm playing as CP right now. Trying to figure out the disadvantages of field artillery units vs medium.
Medium artillery: 61 gold, 75 war supplies, 8 conscripts, 45 days to build, combat power 13, uses ammunition
Field artillery: 30 gold, 10 war supplies, 8 conscripts, 30 days to build, combat power 9, uses no ammunition
I can see that Medium artillery is about 50% stronger. But in terms of gold I can build 2 field arty for one medium arty and in terms of the extremely limited war supplies even 7,5 for one. Plus field arty doesn't consume ammunition and is quicker built.
So where's the point in building medium artillery, except maybe for your most precious, maximized super stack of doom army? Am I missing something here?
Thanks for reading & possible insight.
