I'm using this mod and it's great! The stock DCs were purest fantasy so this is an essential mod from my standpoint. As 9th_cow says, if the Japanese had the vanilla SH4 DCs in the real war and if they'd found a way to drop them on US cities, a couple of them dropped on Washington and New York would have ended the war in 1941.

Redwine, I'm thinking of reducing the DC effectiveness all the way back to really realistic levels because the Japanese are still killing me with alarming frequency. Are there any drawbacks to doing this that you've perhaps noticed while testing?

Also, when we worked on SH3 the assumption was always that the deadly range was only up to the minimum radius, and that the maximum radius was for decreasing levels of damage. Did you find out that this isn't the case and that the deadly range is indeed variable and random between the minimum and maximum radii?
