Victory Levels

I am playing a new campaign , started with Enhanced V1 and did first battle in Poland , I had to assault the Poles. I never do real well on this type missions , got a score of 13925 to 9472, a Draw ( to be expected from score)

The losses were as follows

Germany Poland

men 224 1377
Art 0 37
SVeh 2 0
APC 7 0
AFV 10 17
no aircraft for either side lost
It took 24 of 33 turns to secure all the victory areas but in the end all were held by the Germans.


The second Polish battle was a German Advance against Polish Delay

Score was Germany 12464 Polish 2510

Losses as follow

Germany Poland

men 123 1955
Art 0 34
SVeh 2 0
APC 7 0
AFV 4 17
No aircraft on either side.

The battle was declared a German Minor Victory and a Polish Minor loss. Notice I had over 4 to one on score. And I held all the victory areas at the end ( took 12 turns I believe)


Question...... What is the score determined by? What point spread is needed for different levels of Victory? Were any changes made to thses by Enhamced?

I suspect the score and conditions are effected by the new moral and training levels more than anything else. One can not expect to roll to a decisive victory as easily as in the past.

But it seems odd that my nearly 5 to one win is no more than a marginal Victory.

To get a Decisive, you need a ratio of 5/1 or greater. The levels were not adjusted for Enhanced; and the only effect the new ratings would have is that they moight help reduce the number of unit casualties, thus reducing the total points gained/lost for damage. This was by no means an intentional change, but one that comes with the use of the Experience/Morale settings.

Hi!

It seems that against the AI you need 3:1 to get minor victory and 5:1 to get decesive. In PBEM however you need 2:1 for marginal and 4:1 for decesive victory. The online game is beyond my knowledge.[:)]

As I susapected. This is a nice change by the way. No more of the one sided victories where the AI gets like 200 points and you walk away with 13 k or more points.

I may complain about the German morale, but in the end the changes make for a more interesting time against the AI. My next battle is against Belgium it is another assault ( I hate them).

I thought PBEM was 6:1 DV, and 4:1 MV, due to playing a more advanced opponent.

If I knew how they would have been adjusted...
