Double line formation...

[joe1988]

Hey I was wondering what the special attribute allowing your mean to form a double line does. Does it cause the regiment in front to kneel if there is a regiment behind it? I was wondering because even without the attribute your regiments can form a line... Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Your second line never fires. I haven't even noticed them firing at all when double line is researched, they just stand back there with their thumbs up their butts. I think to simulate the double line, your firing rate increases. Anyone else's thoughts?

The third line fires aswell. It kinda doubles your damage.

I saw the front lines kneel before they shoot looked cool :cool:

[Mister Nock]

before double line only the first line fires.

after double line you can see both the first and second line fire, just not the third.

That's what I see anyway.

When you get the double line formation it makes the two front rows fire the very front kneel and the second are able to fire

no its the 1st and third line that fire when this reacharch is created :)

This actually gives a tremendous boost too the firepower of the unit, Which you will notice on the unit information window, when you select it. Your first row should kneel and fire, thus allowing a second line to fire as well... (as far as animations go). If you see nothing, it may be a graphical setting your off on.

Cheers.
