Artillery vs Battleship attack range error.

Battleships I would of thought would have a greater attack range than SP artillery.

How come then in CoW a Level 3 Battleship (L20) with 42cm main guns only has an effective range in this game of 60kms whilst the Level 2 SP Artillery gun (M7 Priest), I want to attack, having only a 10.5cm gun has in this game a range of 70Kms?

Can the attack ranges of SP Artillery, Artillery and Battleships be reviewed? :huh:

This is done for balance so that naval units use more for their intended purpose for naval battles

Too bad then, this would then be another vote against CoW for being unrealistic.

Level 4 Battleship has a range of 70 Km, and is available on day 24, same day as level 2 SP Artillery research unlocks.

Thank you VorlonFCW for that information, but I am a bit confused on whether you are supporting my argument or not - a battleship with 42cm guns should have a better range than a SP artillery or standard artillery gun of 10.5cm, irrespective of when it becomes available.

Very good argument. We should fix it. Battership will have a range of 70 km on 16th days. ^^
