Combat formula - random element

13 Sept 2016, 11:34

I have a question about combat formula. Given following scenario

Attacker - 2x armored car lvl1, 1x infantry lvl 2

Defender - 3x infantry lvl 1

Terrain - Plains

how often should happen that defender wins? By my understanding, even if I consider some generous random element, not a single time. Do I get something wrong or don't I simply understand the mechanism?

Thanks

There is a certain X factor, but I think the attacker should win 90% of the time. Its important the defender actually defends only to have a shot at that 10%.

Both armies are at 100%?

yep. Seems I just got unlucky. My units were destroyed, the other one ended up with two surviving infantry units, 63 % shape

Well, how many armored vehicles should 3 guys be able to destroy with their m14's?

As many as they can set off the rounds in, no one ever said there was people inside the vehicles

Was a fortification there?

If there is even only a level 1 fortification (or higher), then the defending infantry will highly probable win 90% of the time (or more often)...

No fortification

just got pissed of again

attacker(me 4x infantry lvl 2 92% shape

1x artillery lvl 1 firing from distance

defender: 1x infantry lvl 2 90% shape

terrain: city

after my 1st attack:

me: 3x infantry lvl 2 90%

defender: 1x infantry lvl 1 68%

then defender got reinforced by 5x AA guns lvl 1

after AA counter-attack:

me: 3x infantry lvl 2 66%

attacker: 4x AA gun 90 %

after my 2nd attack:

me: 2x infantry lvl 2 77%

1x artillery lvl 1 firing from distance

defender: 1x infantry lvl 1 37%

Screw tactics, I am starting sending tanks to cities hoping for magical random element of happiness...
