Why RA with comi? I understand the benefits of RA in general, but comi RA get sooner research and production time decrease, while ART gets the same production time decrease, plus a production cost decrease. I'd say the production cost decrease is more valuable than the research availability.
I used to build only Arty and avoided RRarty mainly due (1) their later arrival, and (2) the rare usage competes with early industry construction. But the gun Arty has been nerfed. They have become less effective in terms of damage output per resource invested. They used to be a lot cheaper. Plus the RRarty that Comintern gets arrive earlier AND they do more damage to infantry and light armor compared to Arty. I've been converted to use RRarty a lot more in most of my builds, especially with Comintern. I'm even using them with Pan Asian these days, just in a different ratio. Pan Asian artillery is that much better than normal, so instead of an 8:2 to 6:4 mix of RRarty:Arty, with Pan Asian it's more like 5:5 or 4:6.
