Does the % warfare tech effect the distribution of the three different types of missiles? Restated, do you get more of a certain type of missile with a higher tech %?

no. its all random.

ive had rounds where ive gotten 9 chems in a row. other rounds, more nukes or cruise.

from personal experience, i get more chems than anything else but thats just me.

those of my ffa countries which have missiles are mostly chem heavy except few which have more nukes.

same here.

I'm hoping for an exact answer rather than circumstantial evidence, preferably with proof as I'm trying to confirm/deny a statement made by someone with no proof themselves.

Their theory (probably pulled out of their ass) is that <3% warfare tech=higher % of Chems, >3% tech= more nukes.

missile production is totally random and luck-bonus helps on it, some get more nukes or cruises (and curses it) and some get more chems.

that theory is as good as any theory.

It's not that random. If you look at any warstats in any major war on say Alliance, you can see that CMs accounts for about 60% of the missiles thrown.

For example, LaF threw 351 EMs, 1101 CMs and 498 NMs on MD last reset.

i generally get more chems than anything. But sometimes i do get mostly cruise or nukes. I would say 75% of the time, chems are my most abundant missile.

its just a luck which missile gets when gets missile.

no reason to favor chems (at least not over 40%) since then other missiles could be removed from game.

when I run techers (~2% warf) I get ~twice more chems than nukes but on non-techers some get bit more nukes than chems and some get chems (rarely if at all my countries are cruise heavy).

Well, in the October war vs Evo and SoL, LaF threw 366 EMs, 1151 CMs, and 669 NMs. It's not random.

It's purposely skewed to generate more CMs than NMs than EMs. Statistics don't lie across 80-90 countries across 2000 turns in each case.

In fact, you can get more than 1 missile per turn, as each missile type has a chance to be generated every turn. In theory, you can get all 3 missiles in the same turn by the chances of that is extremely miniscule, but there are people who have posted getting 2 (of different types) in the same turn, but never 2 of the same.

Here's a thread where someone posted getting 3 missiles in the same turn, about a year ago:

i've gotten 2 missiles in the same turn a couple of times
