Read the AP Calc & Armor Calc help files in your game folder.
Weak point critical hits are included in that.
Armor Calc is only needed if you are making a new unit & have its information.

AP Calc lists the average & best possible penetration for that weapon ammo.

Default Re: Detailed examples of Pen/Arm combat calculations

The txt file that comes with the Armor Penetration Calculator states that the numeric values signifying the "Pen" factor will sometimes indeed fluctuate between one number and another, when the two different values are very close to one another at a given range. I just recently read this in the txt file and it impressed me greatly.

Is this was makes the AP Calc a "calculator"? I'm trying to understand why calling it a "chart" like a board wargame chart is less accurate than calling it a "calculator".

Thanks for the further info about the Armor Calculator. You explained its true function when I did not know.

Oh, yes. I've read both of those txt files more than once each. Much important info there.
