War Acadamy : Civ Military Calculator

Mr. Orange · October 9, 2002, 11:46

I've felt we needed a more comprehensive look at our military. So I designed a calculator to do this. I think it does a good job of fleshing out our relative strengths and weaknesses. Especially on the debate about our infrastructure. It can also gauge a rival's strength Pre and Post Espionage. It creates RPG troops strengths and KIA stats. I think it will also come in handy in an eventual PTW game.

I hope all those who do such a great job of stats and information each week can use this for your own projects. And tinker with the MilCalc. It can only get better.

If you have any questions, fire away.

The MilCalc can be found here:

Here (hopefully) is a shot of our MilIndex as of 490AD (27k .gif):

I'll have to take a more detailed look at this later... sorta busy at the moment.

Definately a big thank you for working on this, I'm quite interested

I wanted to say something somewhere, and this is as good a thread as any.

Everyone should take a look at LuckyOrange. It is a very nice site, and a very nice writting job on those articles.

Mr Orange, would you be interested in helping out our local little paper?

Arnelos --

No problem. I hope it will be as helpful as I intended.

UnOrthOdOx --

Thanks for the plug

Lucky Orange is Sequentials

Gazette? Why not? I'm writing all day anyway. E-mail me how you like to apporach putting articles together each issue.

All --

Here is another image from the Mil-Calc. An estimate of our "brothers" on Abananaba Minor, Rome.

I found a kink when making these stats. Its been corrected. Get the Mil-Calc (v1a) again. Go! Go! Patches!

You should get with Reddawg

Speaking of which, Reddawg, did you make some stats of the last save? Did I miss them somewhere?

Yeah, I don't know how it really happened, I somehow hit your profile button by accident and saw your homepage address. For no apparant reason I decided to take a look. Then I said to myself, 'I got to get this guy writting for the Gazette'.

I am not particularly interested in Sequentials, but those are some interesting reads.

I know. Reddawg does such a good job, I did not want to step on any toes. That's why I published the calc. So Reddawg could use it to augment the Mil Section in the The State of The Nation.

I could do "Jane's" like estimation, but I liked to hear from the Dawg first.

Thanks again for the

I e-mailed an idea for The JG last night. Whaddathink?

I had personal business last night, and wont be around that E-mail address again till this afternoon. Ill let you know when I see it.

Cool.

Also. I also thought Aggie might need so hard data to speculate about our rivils for future conflicts, planning, etc...
