If you're lucky, even on Impossible you can halve a stack that beats your attacking stack's leadership 3 to 1.

Doesn't matter what % you put it at since the game is pseudo random, not truly random.

Even if they did weighted averages to make mass-hitting units too powerful, there is a combination you could unerringly trigger a halving.

Hate to say it because I rely on halving a lot with my zany build, but the problem is halving itself. It SHOULD not halve. They need to change it completely. Maybe make it so the enemy is weakened and takes 1.5X dmg on the next attack (like old fashioned criticals) or guarantee a bleeding debuff?

Heey, who do we have here, another dinosaur

dear ckdamascus, now that you're here, do not hide behind complicated expressions and formulas and please fill out the questionnaire before commenting

I see you guys mentioning other games you consider pure gold. I loved HMM3 the most - surely you played Vengeance is mine, Unleashing the Bloodthirsty, maybe The Lone Knight, The Uprising custom maps or Eternal Love campaign to name the few of the best. For me, it has to be fantasy world. Things like Pantzer General do not appeal to me, but just change it to Fantasy General, and I'm in. I guess "scientific" explanation to this would be that after long day I like to switch off completely and enter some unrealistic world with logical rules & elements in it.
