Some questions I could not answer myself reading the manual

[Novaliz]

1) It says: "Every individual gets a random initiative between 0 and its initiative score." I can not find a initiative score in the unit stats?!

2) What is the "i" behind the second defense value? Is it against infantry?

3) What is the "Max attacked" stat saying? For example Max attacked: 3%?

4) If an attacking unit has an attack score of 600 and the defender a score of 40, then a random number is generated between 0 and 600 and 0 and 40, right? It is a hit when the random number of the attacker is higher then the defender score, right? When it is a hit, when it is a kill or retreat? The manual says "based on the statistics of the attacking troop type it is determined if it is a retreat hit, kill hit or pinned hit." What are these "statistics"?

5) I do not get the math of this example: Where is the +39% coming from. It says "All the estimated modifiers multiplied with each other"? I studied german and philosophy, not math :p Maybe I am just stupid atm

Yes. Equipment value vs infantry (mostly lower vs infantry).

You wrote good post
I am curious too.

About 5)
39% is the product of the factors, you just have to handle the percentages appropriately:

-10% --> 0.9
-26% --> 0.74
-14% --> 0.86
+31% --> 1.31
+32% --> 1.32
-1% --> 0.99
+42% --> 1.42

Then multiply:
0.9 * 0.74 * 0.86 * 1.31 * 1.32 * 0.99 * 1.42 = 1.392328 ~ 1.39

and finally:
1.39 --> +39%
