Can some one please help me understand how 2 becomes 173? I realize Nanking is heavy urban wich is quadrupled defense terrain. Last time I checked 2 quadrupled equaled 8. Since I have no idea how forts actually increase comabt value or effect combat odds I guess I have to chalk it up to the effect of a level 4 fort. However, I have attacked level 4 forts before that didn't multiply the combat value of the defender in quites so exponential a manner. I attacked two HQ units that had a TOKEN assault value of ONE each with 157 combat squads, 22 MG squads, 27 engineer squads, 24 81mm mortars and 6 75mm field guns. The HQs have absolutely no combat squads whatsoever and not only is thier token combat value somehow magically multiplied but my 27 engineer squads completey fail to reduce the fort level!!! The Japanese routinely succeed in reducing fort levels even when attacking at 1-47 odds. What gives? Borked or what? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Nanking (91,52) Allied Shock attack Attacking force 7606 troops, 38 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 181 Defending force 5640 troops, 0 guns, 120 vehicles, Assault Value = 2 Allied adjusted assault: 148 Japanese adjusted defense: 173 Allied assault odds: 1 to 2 (fort level 4) Combat modifiers Defender: terrain(+), forts(+), preparation(-), experience(-) Attacker: shock(+), leaders(-) Japanese ground losses: 6 casualties reported Squads: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled Non Combat: 0 destroyed, 1 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled Allied ground losses: 8 casualties reported Squads: 0 destroyed, 1 disabled Non Combat: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled Assaulting units: 28th Chinese Corps Defending units: China Expeditionary Army RGC Army --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
