joemann -> Casualties don't add up? (6/18/2015 5:27:46 PM)

I already posted this issue once but never had a reaction but am still wondering if this is an issue.

I played the second scenario on the Allied side. After the battle I checked the status of my units. I noticed that if I added up the enemy casualties of each individual gun in Bijlevelds battery (total of 6)and compared it with the total casualties in Bijleveld's (the officer commanding the battery)status report they did not match. Bijleveld showed +/- 500 enemy casualties more than the total of the guns. Am I overlooking something obvious?

Are the enemy casualties shown accuarate figures or is it the units' (over)estimate of enemy casualties it has caused? The enemy casualties show in the leader's status report are the som of the enemy casualties in his subordinate units I suppose.
If the figures shown are accurate, did i miscalculate (always possible) or is it a bug. Anyone else notice this?

The enemy casualties are a partially accurate estimate by intention. This is one small part of the fog of war.

Casualties carry-over in certain battles, this could be one but I would need to check.

I looked into this. On scenario load Bijleveld has 8 guns, not 6 - so he obviously lost 2 and they were missed in your count. That would account for the missing score.

Thanks for these answers.
