JTS Melee Calculations

[LarkinVB]

Hi,

I want to completly understand the melee calculations and modifiers as the manual does not seem to be fully accurate.

While using 'Show Melee Odds' sometimes the attacking/defending force number is modified, sometimes the melee modifier changes.

First and foremost what does the melee modifier like 20/0 or 90/20 mean at all? How is it affecting the calculation?

Lances increase the attacking force by +25% while leaders, A class units or attacking from behind increase the modifier by 20 each.

Does someone know the formula to determine casualties?

Stay safe!
