Doubt about Combat, AR and Net Odds

Post by voroshilov17 »

Hello everyone!

Checking this (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/ ... 1544712899) summary of TOAW IV I came across a doubt.

In the bottom left part of the chart (image attached) it is said that having an AR ratio of 3:1 has effect on enemy's quality and therefore, can cause the enemy to make a RFC.

But, as long as I know, the AR is a number (i.e 80, 120, 300, 1190...etc) not a ratio.
1- My first doubt is, that ratio of 3:1 in AR that the chart is telling is refering to the AR itself or to the Net Odds ratio??

2- As long as I know, the AR value indicates the benefits that the attac will have in the combat itself. That is, being a bombardment, a weakly attack, a full attack....etc. Each one of those having their benefits.

3- So, what is the effect on combat of Net Odds? Or more accurately: what does the Net Odds value tell the player to take into account in relation to the combat that is about to take place?

Thanks in advance!
