Still trying to figure how ground combat works.
What's the effect of exp/morale ? I've the feeling each squad must pass an experience and morale check to join in combat. Can someone confirm/infirm this ?
Same question about fatigue/disruption.
What kind of bonus give prep points ?

Thanks for your help,
Paul

Experience + Morale govern how effectively they fight

Fatigue + Disruption govern how long they will fight (higher values will lead to disruption then destruction)

All groups ordered to fight do so. There is no morale check that results in a "i'm not fighting today" result. In the Army, they shoot you for that

So, I'm right if I assume that a unit with a 50/50 rating will figth 2 times better (have a 2-1 odds) than the same unit with a 25/25 one ?

So a perfectly rested unit will not take casulaties ? Just disrupted squads ?

Hopefully not in the Air Army, otherwise my pilots pool will be depleted even faster

Experience weighs in higher but yes.

Yes, a group in mint condition will take mostly disabled hits, once disruption is high, those hits will be destruction instead.

Actually, those incidents happened when he had the 7th Army in the Med.
