As a CH4 player, looking at SS increases over the next 6-7, and having
a couple optional SS increases I skip'd... It sure seems that the qty of the
SS increase is fairly consistent. What that means is, over time, each SS+
is a smaller % of the current SS.
Hypothetically : lets say SS+'s are ~40,
and ur SS is 120..... increases are as follows...
Lets also say you start with 100 squads or 12000 troops.
Lets say there are 2 SS+ per CH, and bldg A gives these
troops and scales by ~40 per chapter.
(1) 120 -> 160 = 33.3 % - 75 squads - bldg A ch3 - 120/24h - 1 -> 0.75 squads
(2) 160 -> 200 = 20 % - 60 squads - bldg A ch3 - 120/24h - 0.75 -> 0.6 squads
(3) 200 -> 240 = 16.6 % - 50 squads - bldg A ch4 - 160/24h - 0.8 -> 0.66 squads
(4) 240 -> 280 = 14.3 % - 42 squads - bldg A ch4 - 160/24h - 0.66 -> 0.57 squads
(5) 280 -> 320 = 12.5 % - 37 squads - bldg A ch5 - 200/24h - 0.71 -> 0.62 squads
(6) 320 -> 360 = 11.1 % - 33 squads - bldg A ch5 - 200/24h - 0.62 -> 0.55 squads
The 2 things I'm trying to demonstrate that also occurr ingame is :
1) Over time, SS increases hurt you less in respect to total # of squads
2) Over time, # of squads earned become less even tho the Bldg A
scales per chapter. ( assuming its always upgraded to current CH ).
This mechanism is why
@Lelanya 's need for Valorian Valors increased,
just to keep the same # of squads produced per day..... Even if Lelanya's
daily loss's of "Squads" stays equal..... by progression, her need for more
buildings to keep "balance" in her city ...
That was Hypothetical #s, but after research into both progression of
buildings and SS as it relates to chapter ( doing all SS+ ) it sure seems
that the effectiveness of buildings giving troops decrease over time.
