    Two questions about attack times

    If you chose to use it do the -4 hour attacks, does it get the -4 before or after all the other attack modifiers? i.e. is it:

    (Base Attack - 4)* Race Bonus * Personality Bonus * Barracks Bonus
    or
    (Base Attack * Race Bonus * Personality Bonus * Barracks Bonus) - 4


    My other question, If I use a -4 attack does the -4 affect combat losses?

    u cant -4. Now how -2 works.

    its a flat -2 hours to attack times, you get the reduced everything to the person u hit. -military losses and -gains. However your military losses are exactly the same.

    so its
    gains = (Base Attack * Race Bonus * Personality Bonus * gs Bonus) *(-2 modifier)
    thier losses =(Base Attack * Race Bonus * Personality Bonus * hospital Bonus) *(-2 modifier)
    your losses=(Base Attack * Race Bonus * Personality Bonus * hospital Bonus)
    your attack time =Base Attack * Race Bonus * Personality Bonus * Barracks Bonus) - 2

    Has anyone ever considered a high hospital/barrack avian to troop kill? Since it is modified after the multiplicative scalers?

    eh its not just that, its that if your holding your attacks to get leets home you end up going from a 6 hour attack time to a 7-8 hour attack time and wasteing your attacks with -gains every hit. Then you couple that with a lowered mod off and your probably only double taping people who are chained. You end up with low incoming acres (easy to be chained) and high offensive losses on your leets. If you just ran orc/undead and "hoped" to hit someone home its very likely every other unique u triple tap somoene with armies in without having to use -hours. You end up with the the same or more damage done to the person your hitting and you dont risk being on low incoming acres.

    Not just high offensive losses, extra high offense losses. Your formulas look incorrect btw

    I believe when we used -time it reduced enemey losses. Unsure of our own. But im 99% sure it reduces their losses including troops when you use -hour attack time.
    My life is better then yours.
