    • Damage doubts

      I was reading the forum about the damage distribution, but i'm not so clear, because it is treated as a secondary or tangencial matter, so, i prefer to open a thread to ask a more specific question about.

      Suppose i have 5 GH oriental doctrine (45/15 soft/hard); My target is an stack of 2 MBT and 3 moto inf both lv4. That is a HP of 60/100 inf/MBT. Lv4 infantry have 20 HP and the tank (oriental) have 50 hp.

      Supposing that RNG is 1, i understand that the damage must be:

      45 to infantry = two infantries dies and one of them must have 5 hp damage (60 - 45)

      15 to MBT = they continues with 85 HP (100 - 15)

      Is that correct? Is there damage distribution or it only work with units of the same kind?
    • These links address it:

      docs.google.com/document/d/1uk…H3r_P-i-yeFP29GcLxxY/edit
      docs.google.com/document/d/1aR…exeg_xJeyH-crhY6QfLM/edit

      For your situation:

      Opposition stack:

      Mot Inf Tank
      Qty 3 2
      Weight 1.35 2.75Total
      Dmg Distribution Weight (qty x weight) 4.05 5.59.55
      % of incoming dmg received42.41%57.59%



      The 2nd link above doesn't follow through with the calculation so it's left unclear, but I presume you work out the "actual" dmg in numbers by multiplying the soft & hard attack values to the applicable percentages above. If that's the case, then the inf would receive 19.08 dmg and the tanks 8.63. That would be just shy of 1 inf dying. This ignores any entrenchment bonus or rng.

      it is very tricky because any player could tend to do the simple calculation of raw power, but with damage distribution the things are not straight forward.
    • I look into the damage distribution and i understand now, but i have another question.

      For example, a stack of 2 MBT plus 3 motoinf would be:

      2 x 2.75 = 5.5 (MBT)
      3 x 1.35 = 4.05 (inf)

      5.5 / 9.55 = 0.575 or 57.5%

      4.05/9.55= 0.424 or 42.4%

      This is roughly 100%

      Now, i have a gunship stack of 5 with 9 x5 = 45 against soft and 4 x 5 = 20 against hard. This means that the damage against soft would be:

      45 x 0.424 = 19.8 (inf)
      20 x 0.575 = 11.5 (MBT)

      But if My stack is 5 AH:

      17.5 x 0.424 = 7.42 (inf)
      50 x 0.575 = 28.75

      Is that correct?

    • Well... I do a test and the result show me that these are correct.

      I used a combo of ASF/Gunship (lv2/lv3) with a soft damage of 25.3 and 10 to hard. I attacked a stack of 2 moto inf and one combat recon vehicle.

      The stack had a health of 47 and when the attack finished the health was 33. In the attachment image we can see the damage distribution; the CRV received less while infantry damage was almost 50%.

      If we do the maths:

      2 x 1.35 = 2.7
      1 x 2.5 = 2.5

      Total damage: 5.2

      Moto inf: 2.7/5.2 is almost 52%
      CRV 2.5/5.2 is almost 48%

      26.3 x 0.52 = 13.67
      10 x 0.48 = 4.8

      Considering the RNG, seems quite consistent.

      Sooooo... I do some other calculus. What about Strikers?

      A lv3 striker (eastern) do 5 damage to soft and hard, this is 25/25 damage (5 units stack) Now testing against the same stack

      25 x 0.52 = 13
      25 x 0.48 = 12

      As expecting, the CRV received heavy damage. What about a stack of 5 gunships lv3 (40/12.5 damage soft/hard)

      40 x 0.52 = 20.8
      12.5 x 0.48 = 6

      Seems like it is a assured infantry kill with near 30% of damage to recon.

      Let's do a AH stack of 5 lv2 units.

      12.5 x 0.52 = 6.5
      40 x 0.48 = 23.5

      A assured CRV kill.

      Well... interesting. I don't do the maths of a combo stack of choppers because i think that is better to use them in single type stacks to assure a kill.

      I love the choppers

      I will do a calculator to share with the community.
