Darin Leviloff - Sep 21, 2004 11:51 am (#7 Total: 9) Last Played: Kursk (ATS), Red Badge of Courage, Seven Years War (S&T), Up Front, and Strategic Command computer game Rule questions 1. When determining attacker defeat levels, how are SP totals less than 3 computed ? The rules say divide by three, rounding off. With SP totals less than 3 that would mean a defeat level of "0". If a defeat level of "0" is allowed, does that mean you automatically lose the battle ? 2. Is leader loss only rolled for if one side in the battle is victorious ? The rules as written suggests that battle phase ends completely if there is not a sole winner and thus subsequent phases are ignored. Makes no sense why leaders would only die in clear cut battles. 3. Are maintainence costs computed by Strength Point or by unit ? For instance, are the maintainence costs for 3 1-strength point units the same as 1 3-strength point unit of the same type or 3 times higher ? Thanks in advance.

With SP totals less than 3 that would mean a defeat level of "0". If a defeat level of "0" is allowed, does that mean you automatically lose the battle ? Round up. 2. Is leader loss only rolled for if one side in the battle is victorious ? The rules as written suggests that battle phase ends completely if there is not a sole winner and thus subsequent phases are ignored. Makes no sense why leaders would only die in clear cut battles. Also if a draw. 3. Are maintainence costs computed by Strength Point or by unit ? For instance, are the maintainence costs for 3 1-strength point units the same as 1 3-strength point unit of the same type or 3 times higher ? Strength point. And this applies to just about every game with strength points!
