    Note That A Unit Can Only Be Halved Once

    Uploaded by

    OliverChrisLudwig
    This document outlines the steps for determining combat odds in a wargame. It begins by having the attacker declare an attack and compute initial odds. It then walks through modifying the odds based on terrain, unit types, rivers, fortifications and other factors. Final odds are set and dice are rolled to resolve combat, with possibilities for retreat or advance after combat is resolved. The flowchart provides a concise process for calculating changing combat odds based on the interactive situation on a mapboard or hex-based wargame.
