Very crudely the 'strength' of a unit is given by 'Hit Points' x 'Fire Power' and all else being equal the stronger unit has a better chance of victory - equality being resolved in favour of the defender - but as you will see it is a rare case when 'all else is equal'.

Actually, the ratio of the attacker's attack strength versus the defender's defense strength is more important than hit points and firepower. Treat the attacker as (A + (A - D)) * HP * FP, and treat the defender as D * HP * FP.Comment

... and one of the more important things that makes all else not equal is the terrain - love those mountains for defending.Originally posted by Scouse Gits
