Ground War Glitch Maybe

[Firwof Kromwell]

 

I ordered a Ground Attack when I had Ground Control & Enemy had Air Superiority.  I still had more troops/tanks before hand but got an Utter Failure. Pls explain if this was a glitch, bug, or just my speculation. @Alex

It could be 2 things

1. Glitch
2. You had enough soldiers and tanks, but maby you didnt count for that the air control decreases your tanks by 50%, wich made you lose

You can theoretically get an utter failure even with double your enemy's forces; it requires around triple their combat strength to guarantee an immense triumph (and don't forget a few thousand soldiers worth in 'resisting population'.)

Probably just bad luck.

Did you look at the Detailed Battle Results to see what the rolls were?

Nope but i will take a gander good sir

[Firwof Kromwell]

@AlexSo how do you get a detailed report that shows the rolls?

[Alex]

It's not logged, so you can't look at it if you've already left the Ground Battle result page. But when you're there, you click "Detailed Battle Report" and a dropdown shows up with all of the details about the battle.

 

Every battle consists of 3 "rolls" which are randomly generated numbers between 40% - 100% of your army value. These "rolls" are compared, and they determine the battle outcome. For example, an Utter Failure is when you lose all 3 rolls, a Pyrrhic Victory is when you lose 2/3 rolls, a Moderate Success is when you lose 1/3 rolls, and an Immense Triumph is when you win all 3 rolls.

So if you had checked, you would be able to see if it was just bad luck (you rolled closer to 40% each time, your opponent rolled closer to 100% every time.)
