Society VII: Resurrection

[Theben]

Can we get an updated map also?

EDIT: nevermind, didn't see it above.

Think I found the issue with combat- you subtracted the wrong way.

Survivors = Difference / Tech Level, round up.

So Spaced didn't take 27 casualties... that's what's left of his army.

Okay so combat is not totally broken.

Looks like the game is going to have to be delayed again.

Thanks Theben!

Okay... last minute requests for me to fix things... I'm heading out in probably 10 hours and won't be back till GMT Monday 02:00. (yes, quite early).

Good luck!

Oh well, we can just make are own map. What 3 cities of mine does spaced cowboy want?

(if he did not say not-taking the now-worthless wonder city seems natural. Anything else leaves a Kira's enclave)

[MJW]

I just noticed that Sparrowhawk is planning to sneak attack me...

[Spaced Cowboy]

DC, you are not getting it.

I had no armies defending my territory, I suspect the same was true for MJW and Jonny.

Therefore, each battle needs to be processed in order and a new map drawn after each one. There will be no defenders in any of the battles.

I suspect that MJW takes my territory, I take his, then jonny get some of my new border colonies. Depending on when jonny sent his orders compared to mine.

[DarkCloud]

Spaced Cowboy, what?
In the rework I didn't leave any forces defending for you.

But the most cities that Jonny could have taken were 4 because that was all he bordered.

In a two-way conflict, only the winner takes territory. And Jonny sent his orders after you.

As you can see in war 3, there are no people defending your territory.

Jonny DID have people defending his territory.

And your war vs. MJW was a two-way attack. Therefore only the winner (you) gains cities.

When two nations attack each other on the same turn, the armies first fight each other. Compare strength:

A1 * A1T vs. A2 *A2T

A1 = attacker 1's army size

A2 = attacker 2's army size

A1T = attacker 1's tech level

A2T = attacker 2's tech level



The loser's entire attacking army is destroyed. The winner's attacking army takes casualties based on the difference.

theben is correct that I need to recalculate the survivors, but beyond that, the map and everything else is correct.

Apparently SURVIVORS are calculated differently for two-way wars instead of in single conflicts:

In two way wars...
Survivors = Difference / Tech Level, round up.

Taking casualties [In a One way war]

Attacker takes casualties as follows:

Casualties = D / AT.

Defender takes casualties as follows:

Casualties = (D / DC) * cities lost.

[DarkCloud]

153-126=27 armies remaining for SC.
Thus, he also has +126 gp.
547+126=673 gp.

that should clear that up.

[Spaced Cowboy]

Sorry forgot about the two attack rule...too many rulz

I blame Skanky!

[DarkCloud]

Okay... so I guess everything's clear... good. now I can leave with a sigh of relief.

Good luck!

[Sparrowhawk]

Enjoy your holiday, just be careful when crossing any borders, don't want anyone to think it is a sneak attack!

/me

[Spaced Cowboy]

My city count should only be 14. Map is right, chart is wrong...minor.

[MJW]

hmm I think spaced should only have 3 cities.

((27/9-0))*(10/9) = 3.3 = 3 cities.

This way of counting makes much more sense. This is because I killed all but 27 of Spaced Cowboys units on the field.

I this is not true then I am totally dead. Spaced will use my horse agaisnst me and crush me. If anyone wants to help out for any reason PM me. I doubt that will happen.

[Spaced Cowboy]

MJW, The equation is to be used with our original armies and start cities.

So it is:

((180/9)-(170/14))*(10/9)

Just as he did above.

And you are not totally dead, I mean, how did the horse help you last turn?

[MJW]

No it did not. But it will help you this turn. Just kill my spying phase with it and build lots of armies. Game Over.

I thought you would defend the trade phrase I was wrong.
