A Question about SoM's

[JackRabbitSlim]

I know this is probably a noob question(even though I have played many Ages), but it became an issue in my Kingdoms first War this Age.

What EXACTLY is always correct on a SoM?

My understanding is that the ONLY thing that is TOTALLY correct on a SoM, no matter what the % of accuracy, is the numbers on Away Armies.
The rest or the information has the possibility of being wrong.

Is that correct?

I was told by several people that the Defense number for the Province was always correct.
I don't think that is right, but now I have to ask about it.
Our Kingdom failed 10 attacks during the War and I think this confusion over SoM accuracy could have been the cause of several of those Failures.

Help me out here with a clear explanation of what can and cannot be trusted on a SoM.

When a SoM is inaccurate, the only accurate information is the army away values - allows provinces to ambush or calculate based on a SoT/SoM combination.

When a SoM is 100% accurate (10% Thieves or Tactician if that is still a bonus), all values are accurate - allows you to calculate hits based on the Net Defense at Home value.

While someone else gives you what you want, I will post this link: http://wiki.utopia-game.com/index.ph...ting_an_Attack

Edit: Ah Runefire already answered. I think people fail attacks because they don't get a SOM.

Sorry but for some reason it double posted.
I just came in and erased the double post and put this in it's place.
I hope you understand.
