Author Topic:   please help me make sense of these numbers

When you press F7, you get to the unit stats page. On the bottom left screen, three numbers are shown for land, sea, air and non-combat units. I always thought they represent attack defense and movement totals, but yesterday I noticed Morgan, who had only one city and one unit left, had a third number of 154. What do these numbers mean anyway?
Also, the police rating confused me. In my social models screen, I had a police rating of 2, meaning 3 units can act as police. But I found out that I could use 4 units as police, not 3. Is this intended?

As for the first part, those numbers are number of units active-in productuion - lost.
Follows the same format of the main body of the F7 display, just summarizes it by generic unit type, i.e. land, naval, air, non combat.
Can't answer the police question. Too smac ed out.
