Strength does not affect the range you can throw turrets. The tool tip of Strength clearly states “how far **items** can be thrown”. This would make sense and gives strength some much needed meaning - at least for one class.

I… don’t understand why strength would affect _something else’s_ ability to throw something?

Humans are tool using creatures; we’ve used things to extend our ability to throw something for over 12,000 years (google ‘atlatle age’ if you don’t believe me).

I’d object if a soldier’s strength had _anything_ to do with the range of a turret.

The soldier is the one throwing the turret. I see how the wording might’ve confused you.

I don’t. How can you be _that_ confused. You first have to assume that _turrets throw things_ :o

It is what you wrote though.  
“The throwing range of turrets” isn’t exactly the same as ,“the range you can throw turrets,” especially if English might not be a first language.
