Post subject:  Campaign Leipzig infantry fire value

Hello,

Been trying to understand the formulas behind fire value I have some questions.
From reading the manual it mentions infantry fire is modified under those circumstances:

50% more fire value when in line formation if not moved.
İf enemy in column formation it receives 25% more fire.
Elevation have impact on fire value.
if Unit with high morale(A) then fire value is increased by 20%.
-----
In my test 585 Prussian line infantry with morale A firing French column had 3656 fire value. 585*5(Musket fire value at range 1)*25%(defending force in column formation)
In the other test 775 Prussian line infantry with morale B firing the same French column had 4843 fire value with the same formula as above.
From this tests I saw that neither morale or elevation have impact in fire value. As fire report had exactly same values. Am I missing something about modified fire value?

Regards
Baris
