I was still working with Mechanized Cavalry (motorcycles, gravboards,
etc.) and needed to cost the unit. I considered just costing them as
cavalry, but I wanted movement based on mobility type and thought that
a unit that could move 15 should cost more than one that moves 4.
I propse the following cost formula:
Cost = Normal Infantry cost + (base movement rate x 1.5)
Militia Infantry of type Cost Base Movement
Infantry 10 2 (Foot) [cost per DS2]
Horse 20 4 (Cavalry) [cost per DS2]
Motorcycle 25 10 (High Mobility Wheeled)
??? 24 8 (Slow Tracked)
Snowmobile 28 12 (Fast Tracked)
GEV Sled 32 15 (Fast GEV)
Gravboard 32 15 (Grav)
Line Infantry of type Cost Base Movement
Infantry 20 2 (Foot) [cost per DS2]
Horse 30 4 (Cavalry) [cost per DS2]
Motorcycle 35 10 (High Mobility Wheeled)
??? 34 8 (Slow Tracked)
Snowmobile 38 12 (Fast Tracked)
GEV Sled 42 15 (Fast GEV)
Gravboard 42 15 (Grav)
