[B]Since I've only had this game a day (all patched), I'm not sure if this is a common thing for the game as it's my first ground battle. But here's the scenario:
I began landing my troops on Tiligara (or something like that) while doing all the prep attacks. When I felt confident enough I set the Marines on delibrate attack. The results were;
Attacking Force: 10006 men, 138 guns, 38 vehicles.
Defending Force: 3461 men, 6 guns
Assault odds 6 to 1 (Fort Level 1)
Jap Losses: 1869 men, 7 guns
Allied Losses: 2 men lost.
After nearly breaking my arm patting myself on the back, I allowed myself a break from fantasy-land long enough to realize something isnt right. Even without taking into account the fierce fighting the Japs were known for, this result would supprise even the Germans if they were to have even one battle in Poland with the same win/loss ratio. Doesnt this seem a little too one sided?
Now I know there are a few scenarios where results like this are acceptable (surrender, etc.) But as this is my first scenario, and as the Japs had the opposite reputation, I'm unsure if this is a combat system flaw or just a lucky break.
PS) I'd like to invite anyone else with strange combat results to use this post. [/B][/QUOTE]
Unusual, Not necessary "Strange" if the enemy is isolated/low supply to none, morale is 0, high fatigue, poor commander, then only a few fight, consider the rest to have committed Hari Kari ;)
The land combat model is somewhat abstracted anyway. :cool:
