Old Warmonger Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 I am working on an static operation. I was trying to understand how the Attacker Casualty Point Factor Works and how it effects the victory calculation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 I'd like to know that as well, because at the moment I'm not sure if it means that the attacker's casualties are multiplied or if the casualty points gained by the attacker (e.g. the defender losses) are multiplied. The manual doesn't seem to mention it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emar Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 I asked the same question awhile ago while working on some ops. The answer that I recieved is that it affects the value of the attackers points at the end of the op for victory calculation. ie. if for instance you have the casualty point factor set to 50% then the attacker can sustain twice as many casualties as the defender and still pull a draw if all other considerations are factored out(victory flags, etc). The opposite would be true as well if the factor were set to 200% then the defender could sustain twice as many losses as the attacker for equal end results. As far as I know this is how it works. The manual does not explain it at all and the wording is kind of confusing and could be taken either way. It also seems especially kind of strange if it does work this way that the editor allows you to go up to 1000% in the defenders favor as in most scenarios the attacker is already at a disadvantage. Maybe Matt or Moon will catch this thread and set us straight. P.S. I tried to establish for myself which way it worked by playtesting some of my ops against the AI with settings from 10% to 1000% and beleive it or not could not really establish a solid answer(still had wins and losses at both settings) :confused: :confused: :confused: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bannon DC Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 I'm pulling this thread back in... I have the same question. This thread provided part of an answer but still not a complete answer. So... If I want to favor the Defenders' score... which way should I adjust? The range goes from 10% to 1000%. Come in Battlefront. Do you copy? Over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
