Trophy Re: Random Battle Balance

3:1 seems fine to me? It's what they say you need to ensure success in an attack, isn't it? ;) [/QUOTE]

I do hope I got this right and you are joking. :) :up:

Yes, 3:1 should ensure success....

Re: Random Battle Balance

Real life armies always win if they have an advantage like SPWW2 attackers.

Seriously, if everybody evades my argument *that the attacking side is OP*, why am I entertaining you? :rolleyes:

Post Re: Random Battle Balance

In your initial post you were talking about human vs AI play?

As for PBEM it's basically the same story - some players are good, some are veterans and some are demons..., set your own battle...

Post Re: Random Battle Balance

I am inclined to think this is a strawman argument.

I have never had any doubt whatsoever, that you, as a developer, or the most expert players, can beat the odds.

The 3 words most important in...

Post Re: Random Battle Balance

Poland (player 1) assaults Germany (player2).
2.000 vs. XXX.

(37% of 2.000 = 740, so this is what Germans should get, right?)

I tested it AI vs. AI. Polish AI swept away the German AI in 20...

Exclamation Re: Challenge for Wulfir

The Polish force is strong in infantry but weak in nearly all other areas.

No AA. Buy a spotter plane - you'll discover their main effort - shell them as they approach. The Poles have limited AT...

Re: Random Battle Balance

Sorry for the DP. I pressed the Edit button, but got a reply instead. Edit button doesn´t work for me at all. Is it the forum or my browser?

Smile Challenge for Wulfir

I played with 890 battle points vs XXX.




Play the game more and the AI will not wipe you out. :)[/QUOTE]

Re: Random Battle Balance

You are sure you are following the discussion? I am talking about a game where the attacker has 2.000 pts or less.

This means I have 1.000 pts in a Delay, at the most. My point is precisely that I...

Brilliant post, and you got me halfway convinced.

Since there is necessarily an amount of scissors/stone/paper to it, the AI buying routines cannot cover every possible attacker force structure,...

Re: Random Battle Balance

Map size aside, are you sure we are talking about small pts here?

2000 vs. 740, how is the defender going to recapture anything after he has been completely wiped out? :)

Sorry if I cut your post to this one sentence. All the rest I more or less agree with, but this sentence left me literally with my mouth open. I just don´t get it:

What good will an ambush do him...

Exclamation Re: Random Battle Balance

Just a quick check: you do mean 120% and you aren't actually setting it to 20%?[/QUOTE]

Yes, *definitely* 120%, and the AI *got* close to 1.000 pts, but that was not nearly enough against my...

Smile Re: Random Battle Balance

Let me guess: You spend less than 50% of your points on rifles when attacking.

I have only played 10 games or so, but I must admit a certain prejudice has entered my mind, namely: WINSPWW2 is...

Post Re: Random Battle Balance

Tobruk is rather difficult terrain, rough and hilly.

A larger map would help the attack even more -defeat the puny defenders in detail.

No, I think 1.5x1.5 km is *just* right if you consider...

Player experience is probably the most important factor.

What map size and battle points are you using?[/QUOTE]

Question Random Battle Balance

In my experience the balance in non-ME Random Battles with all-default settings (100 %/XXX) is pretty much off.

Attacking/Advancing, my usual result against the AI is a decisive victory....
