Pain Posted December 18, 2000 Share Posted December 18, 2000 WTF (I don't write it out) is the difference between Attack-Defense Scenarios and Probe Scenarios? I just don't get it... I'm thankful for any comments. Greez Pain ------------------ War is in my heart Death is by my side! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grobdeutschland Posted December 18, 2000 Share Posted December 18, 2000 It's the amount of pts. the attacker gets-more on attack then on probe missions. ------------------ "Far better it is To dare mighty things...

Pain Posted December 18, 2000 Author Share Posted December 18, 2000 But I can set the amount of points for both Attacker and Defender when I do start a quick battle. Does it affect the set points in any way, when I choose probe/attack ? That's what it sounds like... And thanks for your comment Grobdeutschland ( are u from Germany? If so: Danke für den Kommentar! ) Greez Pain ------------------ War is in my heart Death is by my side! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samhain Posted December 18, 2000 Share Posted December 18, 2000 Hallo Leute, In Quick Battles, the number of points is for the defender, though you can handicap the force sizes either way. I forget the ratios (and they've changed with the various patches, iirc), but an attack will give the attacker a force of about 1.5 more points than the defender, while an assault will give the attacker a force of around twice as many points as the defender. ------------------ I rode a tank, held a general's rank When the blitzkrieg raged, and the bodies stank. --Rolling Stones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olle Petersson Posted December 19, 2000 Share Posted December 19, 2000 Another difference is the scope for the battle. A probing engagement has one or two victory flags fairly close to the attacker, while an attack has the flags further back, and an assault usually have the victory flags at the very rear of the defender.
