I'm trying to figure how combat works. Thanks to the handy combat log, the SF combat tables, and some number crunching, I've figured out some things.

I do need some help, though. How do you determine if a soldier is hit? As far as I can figure, you take the "AFTER ALL MODS: attval" and "AFTER ALL MODS: defval" (found in the combat log) and create die rolls on each based on each value. High roll wins.

Eg, A SMG II is counter-attacking a light tank. The SMG II's attval is 193 and the light tank's def val is 4110. So you roll a 193-sided die for the SMG II and a 4110-sided die for the light tank. High roll wins.

Is this right?

Another question. In the SF detailed description page (the in-game one), in the "Vs. SFtypes" tab, what do those numbers mean (the attack/defend kill chance numbers)? What stats do the numbers modify and how are the modifications done?

I cannot understand the calculation in battle long too.
And I want to know is there some relationship between hitpoins and attackpoints?

its the average number of the specified sf type it is probable to kill. Its just a helper to give an idea of the odds.

i am working on providing more in-game insight in AT gold.

best,
