Re: Productive Scale needs some Enhancements
Points cost for individual scales cannot be modded; I believe we've been told that this is not going to change.
The prod/scale level of sloth is already so high that if you raised it, sloth-3 would become unviable for any nation that even uses its troops. A nation with sloth-3 already has half the army of a nation with no sloth - making this penalty bigger just discourages people from fielding heavy infantry.
This would have the undesirable effect of making a choice unviable (which is not good), and also of encouraging strategies where you don't use troops at all, or don't use heavy infantry.
It would be nice if the positive productivity scales were bigger than the negative sloth scales.
