Yes, a bane lord will be killed by a sngle hit from a gate cleaver wielded by a niefel jarl. That's 56 points of armor negating damage.

btw is here a good statistician who could make a small chart for me where some hitting odd percentages are shown ?

like hitting chance vs
-20 higher
-19 higher
....
-20 lower defensive rating .

would be really helpful i think .
if something like this already exists somewhere here on the Boards give me a link plz .

cause i wanna e.g. figure out if i could "swarm" niefel jarls then with an undead horde or something similiar and how my odds are then .
my second main implementation will be then to see what it really means for hitting chances in sc vs sc / semi-sc's if one has a e.g. 2 lower attack rating than his opponents defense rating .

Yikes! That's really bad then.

Saber Cherry has already done something along the lines of what you seek: Dominions II Combat Simulator v41

It's not a chart of to-hit chances, but a chart of what unit will statistically defeat another unit.

yeah i guess i could be a good politician
at least i seem to naturally have the ability to beat about the bush for hours or declare someone a quite simple thing so extensive that he even forgets what the original question was and is rather sillier after that than cleverer .
sometimes it can be a good thing :
i was able to fool many of my teachers that way . most gave me high "oral" marks in the comprehensive grammar school. ( perhaps that's a special german thing again and not so common in the usa and elsewhere dunno if that translation is good . but here in germany these oral marks counted 1/3 in the reference ) .

or in diablo 2 when trading that worked well too
loved buying a storm shield for 1 soj and trading it away 10 minutes after for 1 soj + an item worth 0,5-0,75 soj .
then for the soj a new storm shield and for the 0,75 item an additional soj and so on and so on
unfortunately i started playing lod too late so the insane dupes came before i was "soj-rich" enough to afford the real gems like pre 1.08 arcaines valour and so on
trading was the part i loved most at diablo 2 lod lol .
anyone like minded here ?

You can definetly swarm Niefel Jarls with skeletons. That is probably their greatest weakness, since they have a very high base encumbrance. They need 8 reinvigoration to avoid passing out over time when fighting lifeless troops, and this is very hard to come by. (Boots of the messsenger, rainbow armour, girdle of might will cover it.)

Thanks for digging up that great old thread by Cherry. I've added a direct link to it on my site's links page so that I and others won't lose it again. As I find other useful archived threads I'll add more links on my site. Suggestions are always welcome, BTW.
