Anyone have a clue which troops attack/defend first in a battle?
If every battle was just a matter of one troop type versus another then it's a simple calculation of the attack score versus the appropriate defense score. After that you'd just tootal the casualties.
However, when you attack a city with an assortment of troops it's really confusing what the outcome should (granted, I don't simulate much). If my opponent has lancers and guardians and I attack with knights and zerks, I'd like to have the zerks come in and wipe out the lancers and clear the way for the knights to attack the guardians. But obviously if the lancers defend the knights attack first and then the zerks make their attack the outcome is going to be dramatically different as the lancer will defend with maximum benefit.
Troop initiative
This thread has a lot of insight on the exact questions you guys are posing. I'd also just like to add, "Use the Simulator, it seldom lies."
