Hi everybody,
I just would like to know the exact meaning of the bullets (balls) and of their colours (green, yellow, red) in the bottom of the 2D marker representing a Corp in the map.
Someone said each bullet means 3 units in the Corp (1 ball= 3 Units, 2 balls= 6 units and so on) but I don't think that is right.
Thank you so much!!

Hi and welcome!

Yes, thats right

Each of this bullets represent 3 units on the stack (beware: units, no elements. So both 3 leaders and 3 full divisions are one bullet)

The color have two modes:
- On the supply layer they represent supply level of the stack: red means awful, orange is bad, yellow so-so, green good.
- On all the other layers they represent, as i understand, a mix between health and cohesion. As above, colors go from red (bad) to green (good).

On structures (cities, forts...) you will also see them to represent the garrison inside the structure (the same: one ball=3 units).
And blue balls represent naval units on structures with ports.

Regards

First of all thank you for your answer.
My doubt is... Sometimes a Corp with 9 units (no elements) has two bullets on the marker... and on the other side a Corp with 4 units has 3 bullets... How is it possible??
Maybe things change from a version of the game to another?
Hi and thanks again for your welcome!!

Hi!

Not sure... The 3 units per bullet "rule" was explained by Pocus (the game developer) ages ago... i just use to repeat it around
But have checked now with the latest patch and indeed things seem to have changed.
Now balls/Bullet seems more related to real strength of the stack that to number of units.
A 3 division stack will have more bullets that a 6 batteries and leaders stack.
Maybe in some later patch the system was changed to count elements instead of units, which seems like an improvement
But i don't have a clue about what the actual formula is
Pocus should know

Regards!

Someone could give me other informations? I would be very grateful... I can't solve this problem

Fuzzy memory here, have you tried counting the command cost, with a minimum of 1 per unit (no 0 cost).

If you could make an example...I'll appreciate that!! Such a brain-teaser... Thank you for your answers and explanations anyway. See you next time
