Herby the official release of the weewar battle calculator. it uses binomial statistics and the info obtained from http://www.weewar.com/specifications to calculate the expected results on a battle. It will also show the calculations made so if something gos wrong you can detect it early.

As opposed to the calculator on pluto's forge (http://www.plutosforge.com/blog/projects/weewar-battle-simulator)
you show how many units one loses (versus how many are left). Not better or worse but one has to be aware of and get used to that.

Only thing I like better on pluto's forge is the interface (clickedy-click on pretty images).

But pluto's forge was down at some point this morning, so your site is very welcome and in my bookmarks. Thanks for your work!

Yea, i made the calculator mostly for myself. My strategy is basicly a credit strategy where i deside to attack someone if it is profitable (credit wise). thats why i show the units you lose and the cost associated with that]]> http://weewar.com/forum/posts/preList/1513/23150.page http://weewar.com/forum/posts/preList/1513/23150.page GMT
a couple of notes:

you might want to explain assault damage/defense damage as the expected damage the assaulting or defensing unit receives. i initially thought it was how much they would inflict.

you can try calculating an expected damage based on the probabilities. like a trooper on plains attacking a trooper on swamp will inflict 5.52 damage (and take 4.04). makes it even easier to read if you don't want to know the exact probabilities.

Also included a in defense -> attacker range check and if a unit is able to be on a specific terain.

Unit types could even be arranged on the same 3-column grid that is used when buying units.

No idea how hard that is to implement or attractive in any way to the creator of this calculator.

Either way, a very useful tool, thanks for that!
