    Certain victory in combat

    I know there has been much discussion about the whys and wherefores of pikemen beating tanks and the like.

    In the context of that, this chance of victory caught my eye. I'm not sure how it calculating the spare .1% at the end, has anyone ever seen a negative chance of victory? A -0.1% or whatever, this would hint it's possible.

    Usually the >100%s occur when both units have first strikes. I see this very often, although from the looks of that pic they dont both have first strikes, so I'm not sure what is causing the issue there.

    Also I have lost battle with GREATER than 100% probability (not equal) because, as I'm sure you can tell, if it's over 100% then it is most likely an error and thus not the correct probability.

    In your case it just looks like a rounding issue or something (maybe from too many factors involved in the battle).
    "You are one of the cheerleaders for this wasting of time and the wasting of lives. Do you feel any remorse for having contributed to this "culture of death?" Of course not. Hey, let's all play MORE games, and ignore all the really productive things to do with our lives.
    Let's pretend to be shocked that a gamer might descend into deeper depression, as his gamer "buds," knowing he was killing himself, couldn't figure out how to call 911 themselves for him. That would have involved leaving their computers I guess."

      That certainly looks like a bug, you better report it.
