[Zanzetkuken The Great]

[spoiler=Turn 17 results]
Battle fought at (7,8):
   The Inverted Axes attacking (2 units)
   Valcoran City Guard, The Ancoran Tribe army 13 defending (3 units)
   Bowmen (13) destroyed
   Bowmen (9) destroyed
   Bowmen (4) destroyed
   Attackers win

I got no kills?  At all?  Seriously?

[notquitethere]

Looks like someone...

(•_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■

...just got axed.

[lemon10]

Yeah, kills in combat (in small battles at least) tend to be all or nothing, because once you kill one unit then your enemy has way reduced firepower. That said, you did get nasty luck, because in the other two test turns I ran afterwards you wiped those axeman out easily.

I don't want to be pessimistic, but Zanz might end up being right when he said that he had pretty much lost.

I knew it was a major gamble, but I figured I had a chance and fortune favours the bold.

Question how does HP recover?

Hmmm...do city orders, or army orders occur first?

[notquitethere]

City. That's why I fought three of your archers not two.

Another question, how do healers work?

Question how does HP recover?

IIRC it's something like +2 in Hostile territory, +4 in Unclaimed, +6 in Friendly territory and +8 in Friendly Cities.

Another question, how do healers work?

That one I don't know. I'm guessing it adds +2 to HP Regen though.

Awesome.  You ain't gonna be getting shit if you take that city.

[notquitethere]

If you reduce the population (I guess that's your plan) it'll go down to 2, which is the lowest the pop can go down to when conquered, so it won't make any difference.

[notquitethere]

This is giving me a hankering for an nation building game where total war isn't an inevitable or desirable end stage, so plots and alliances and intrigues might take a more central focus. Hmm.
