Re: Cost per research point calculator
 

How is maintenance cost calculated ?
In the game it's surely rounded (up or down) somewhere, to have entire figures. I've heard that it was done on a per unit basis, so that can really change the values on the long run (50-100 turns).
Anyone has the formula ? IW only ? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Thanks for the corrections - I quickly learned not to play Drain 3 except with standard Ulm, and I forgot about the Philosophers - and for the data on Witch Doctors (who must therefore have a "sage bonus" of -2).

Hi,

Just wanted to mention that I believe that the calculator (here) really does every calculation in agreement with the discussions in this thread.

Also, I added a few more independents.

Cheers,
Thomas
