Re: Re: [FMABrigade]

How about being subtle and using the unit's mobility (grav, aerospace,
track, foot, or wheeled) and type (artillery, tank, transport, VTOL or
Aerospace) to decide a lot of the attack, defence, range and movement?

Then use Skill/Quality to modify this slightly? So that Elite armour can
move farther than Green armour, veteran artillery shoots farther
conscript/yellow artillery and so on?

If you think of something more convincing, go for it.
