Rommel's Last Push - DoMan (Axis) Vs. TGC (Allies) - Round 6

@The_Good_Captain Yes I noticed the same thing after our first game (where I brought the SC with the flank instead of the MECH) and made the adjustment. Doesn’t come up often but when it does it can swing the numbers ever so slightly.

I love North Africa good to see its getting some development time on TripleA. Downloaded the current module to try it out, big improvement from a year ago!
@The_Good_Captain said in Rommel's Last Push - DoMan (Axis) Vs. TGC (Allies) - Round 6:
I want to point out something right here, right now. If you’re ever wondering which units you should flank with and which should be the main attack: the answer is always those units that hit at a higher value.
The percentage increase of the mech on the flank attack went from 30% to 43%
The percentage increase of the armor on the flank attack went from 50% to 71%That’s a 13% boost for the mech vs a 21% boost to the armor. Not all “flanks” are equal.
Flank with your harder hitting units.
I would agree. The interesting thing is that your chances of landing all hits doesn’t change depending on which units are flanking. (I realized this is because of the commutative property of multiplication).
However there is a large difference in your chances of completely whiffing. This tails off as you factor down for higher and higher percentage of units landing hits. So as expected you always want to use higher-chance units to flank.
For a simple experiment, if you make the G1 attack with just the mech, art, and 2 tanks:
- Chance to completely miss (no flanking) 12.25%
- Mech & Art flanking 8.16%
- Tanks flanking 4.0%
- Chance for all 4 to hit (no flanking) 2.25%
- Mech & Art flanking 4.59%
- Tanks flanking 4.59%


- Chance to completely miss (no flanking) 12.25%
-
-
I cut it many times and came up with Axis +1.20. Have to do some fancy footwork to get the flank stats “right”.
We’re going to go with Axis +1.20. Back to you
