Clinamen: Lieutenants of Artillery

I'll update to 1.28 as it will come soon.

update to 1.27?

@artillery753 OK, I found the bugs (two wrong units) and updated a bugless version. The changes in saved games will probably take place after changing units (if a country changes buged units to others or if a country changes units to units previously bugged). Sorry for the bugs and once again thank you for the feedback! (And for reminding me to try Plus Ultra :)

Thank you for reporting this, I will certainly have a look, something must be wrong.

It may be due to conflicting mods (I haven't played a game solely with this mod yet), but some countries have 10 artillery per regiment but others have 1000. In your response you told me this was a ui bug but the countries with only 10 artillery only ever have 1 siege bonus despite having 10+ regiments of artillery (100+ artillery) while those with 1000 per regiment recieve 2-5 siege bonus from their artillery. To reiterate I am not sure if one of my mods is causing this error I just wanted to bring this to your attention because the artillery difference also seems to affect combat making it terribly one sided. If the problem is indeed my fault I apologize for wasting your time. I do enjoy this mod and would like to use it with the mods I have (plus ultra, more generals, 10 ideas, several of your mods, and regional bonuses).

I am open to adjusting the numbers but I am not sure at the time. Manpower definitelly should not be an issue for artillery, money should be (in fact trained artillerymen could be but they are hard to simulate given the game mechanics). This also strenghtens smaller but rich countries, which is good.

If we think of an artillery regiment as two pieces of artillery, numbers of pieces are more or less realistic for the time period. Even counting drivers for wagons and servants for deployment I hardly see how one artillery piece could require more then five people. We are not talking about large siege artillery but field artillery used in battles after all.

What is more, I am not convinced that the men in logistic are counted into the unit size. Both infantry and cavalry regiments needs commissariat, which definitely do not fight battles, whereas full 1000-man units do fight.

Isn't 10 a bit too low ?

This makes manpower not an issue for artillery (wich means the only thing wich would stop you from having double ranged army is just money) and is also not realistic. Even admitting a unit is only one piece of artillery (wich definitivly is not) this means 10 people per piece in a time where it was common to use oxes to move it, and 10 could easily be the men's needed only for logistics.

Maybe 100 would be better ?

Ok, thanks for the quick response :)

As far as I know from my games, it is merely a UI bug in the ledger, it has 10.

In my game France still has 1000 cannons per artillery regiment while everyone else has 10
