VortiX February 2026 Tier List
My proposal is to give heavy cavalry a population of 1.5.
Decimals aren’t a problem for the game since it truncates them and represents them as a whole number. For example, 1 knight will show that it occupies one population, but 2 knights will show that it occupies three population.
As proof that the game truncates, when an Imperial officer oversees the stable, it accelerates cavalry production from 35 to 9 because it truncates to a whole number. Mathematically, this is 9.2, and you can verify that 5 units will be produced in 46 seconds.
And anyway, 2 heavy cavalry vs. 3 heavy infantry still wins.
