RoF that great help.

 

look like from chart it 4096 Cell size 20.

 

cell size ts the detail?

 

 is Stratis 4096 cell size 4 ?

 could cut size down to just smaller battle area. I like artillery so size matter for me,  detail is need. the little terrain features, if you are there ( i try to have  remember that little finger or rock formation with the beast of tracers over head, looking at shooting stars then finding it only artillery,  feel ).  

 what thinking of size to have this?
