Land Combat Questions

Post by jcrohio »

Have two questions
1) On the combat screen for odds I have the following 5:1;6:1B (54:8) (Clear Hex, Surprise turn, Fine Weather)

2) Another line has 7:1;B (34:4) (Forrest Hex, Surprise turn, Fine Weather)

Thanks
Jack

Appears you have initiated 2 land combats and need to select the first one to begin resolving the battles.

You must be using the 1D10 Land Combat Results Table.

Translations:
5:1; 6:1B (54:8) = 5:1 on the Assault table, 6:1 on the Blitzkrieg table, Attacker has 54 combat factors and the defender has 8. Pure ratio 54/8 = 6.75. The Assault table jumps from 5:1 to 7:1. Since there is no 6:1, that is why is shows as 5:1.

7:1; B (34:4) = 7:1 on both tables. Pure ratio 34/4 = 8.5. The Assault table jumps from 7:1 to 10:1. The Blitz table stops at 7:1.
