I'm not much of a mathematician but I love helping developers improve games. I was intrigued on how much better the Chu Ko Nu and its upgrades than their respective default/generic counterparts. I took their DPS values from the Dominations wikipedia and divided the Chuck DPS values by the GRI (generic ranged infantry) DPS values and multiplied the value by 100% to get the mutliplier. This calculation is takes into account that the Chuck fires 2 shots to the GRI's 1. Note that the musketeer's DPS had 2 values when I visited the wiki page. Also I have rounded the values with .1 to .5 to the lower integer and .6 to .9 to the higher integer. This is just to get an approximate integer value.
I just want to know whether the huge discrepancy in the numbers with different levels affects the game interactions or not and if correcting them will bring more balance to the game. The below table contains the data after the calculation. I plan on updating this thread later with values for the British and Korean unique units as well.

P.S. I didn't have access to the People's veteran rifleman wiki page or game info to compare with the elite rifleman.
