Hello, I've newly discovered that one of my childhood games remained alive and received extensive love from some enthusiastic modders. Which is great!


I have a question about how Dexterity impacts on your chance to hit. Not sure if anyone has the proper formula to calculate things, but is it more or less impactful than marksmanship?

Which is better, a merc with 80 DXT 60 MRK or one with 60 DXT 80 MRK and by how much?

Many thanks!

Overall, none of my mercs can hit the broad side of a barn standing inside it regardless of how much of either they have.

My impression from playing is high MRK is better than high DEX. Once all my mercs have high 90s MRK, the higher DEX ones have better chance to hit when aiming than the lower DEX ones. Make both IMPs and experiment.

Assuming you are playing with the NCTH system (I don't know how it is in OCTH), dexterity, knowledge and merc level also influence CTH. But marksmanship is the most determining parameter.

You can adjust all those weights to your liking though in CTHConstants.ini. I have for instance increased the weight of merc level (see example below). This makes sense to me and also justifies the high salaries of high-level mercs happy


BASE_EXP = 3.0
BASE_MARKS = 4.0
BASE_WIS = 1.0
BASE_DEX = 2.0
