SaberChery on power and overall:

Note that "Win %" and "Overall Score" don't seem to directly correlate... well, um, that's hard for me to explain, but basically, if a group has a high win% and low overall score, it does well against groups with a low win% and bad against groups a high win%, and vice versa.
I guess power means "how this unit is able to slaughter weaklings" and overall means "how this unit fares when faced with the best troops". I do not think you can divide power by number of troops, but I may just not understand what power means. I simply compare the number of troops needed to do as well as the other squads, so one Vine Ogre would be nearly as good as four militia, but only somewhat better than Heavy infantry.

The numbers mean, on average, that 354 militia will fare as well as 81 vine ogres against all the other squads, but some specific units are better for some situations. And since there is no morale (no routing is allowed according to Saber Cherry), Vine Ogres should indeed be much stronger than shown here.
