In an AI match brits against USA the enemy extreme ai falconets did 0 damage consistently. i noticed when i had this falconet tank 5 falconets contiues damage for a good minute.

i tested this for an extended period and it was pretty clear when i started to use cheat code to get 20 rockets and they were also not taking anz damage either from the ai trying to use falconets

my falconecs where working normaly, just ais were bugged

My mind jumped straight there when I saw the title. You can tell if a USA opponent has them by looking at their deck. They need to go age 4 with N Carolina or include the Team 5 Quaker gun card. One of those two cards needs to be in their deck to make them.

It’s a unique unit for USA. They look like artillery, can take the shape of any artillery, but do no damage. After sending the Age 4 NC shipment they cost 100 wood and 1 pop, useful for either faking out your opponent or hiding your real artillery.

How much hp do they have? Normal? Had I clicked the unit, could I see 0 damage In panel?
+thx for explaining!
