[War-devel] Rules and units...

[SamBC <sa...@ni...>]

I will hopefully this week have time to put together a more specific set of
rules based on the overall prototype description I mailed some time ago.
Together with this I would like to put in some basic units. I envisage these
as being:

	Standard Infantry		-	Riflemen - low firepower & range, mediocre CAF, get
the idea?
	Heavy Infantry		-	Support troops - higher firepower & range, -ve CAF
	Shock Troops		-	Assault unit - no firepower, high CAF, possible faster
move?

	APC				-	Personnel carrier - no firepower, zero CAF, carries units fast
	Battle Tank			-	Large cannon gives one Armour Piercing shot, plus some
other firepower
	Howitzer			-	Artillery, gives barrage & artillery special effects
	Assault tank		-	Small carrying capacity, no firepower, has a bit of CAF

I have intentionally not included any war machines (as they will be harder
to code we should leave them for now) or special troops like psyches. If
people think any of these are too complex for the first generation, or that
I have left out critical units, please say so soon so I can work on them as
well.

I will try to use my experience to balance the units correctly.
