So basically, I'm in this war with Yisrael and whilst my army is superior to his (60k + 1000 tanks vs 50k + 0 tanks), my war timeline goes as follows:

 

Utter Failure, Immense Triumph, Utter Failure.

 

My gasoline and ammunition reserves were enough, so that's not it.

 

this is basically the Yom Kippur tank war all over again  :(  :(

It happens - It basically revolves around a few dice throws. Statistically, you'd be favored to win that battle, but it doesn't always work out that way (whatever your army commander is named - blame him for blundering away a few battles) ;)

Yeah- but how would these game mechanics cause either an Utter Failure or Immense Triumph, which are on the complete opposite edges of the ''success-spectrum''? I'd accept a Pyrrhic victory or moderate success... 

 

Oh well, RNG it is.

 

Like I said, it's a series of 3 rolls - if you lose all 3 rolls, it's an utter failure. If you win all 3, it's an immense triumph.

 

You're right, and it seems most likely that you may have gotten a moderate success or even a Pyrrhic victory before an utter failures, but it seems luck just wasn't on your side.
