Evasion question

[keyser soze]

What EXACTLY units gain when players researching this unit attribute? Better defense? Better retreat? Better avoiding bullets and shells?

Thanks in advance for explanation.

Evasion x Durability is your defense value.

Durability is fixed.

[Paul Vebber]

Since the attacker has to roll the defense value or better to score a hit (double to get two hits) - increasing evasion makes your units harder to hit.

if you mean in theory what does it represent? I envision it as tactics and leadership. whereas durability seems like equipment.
