MASS COMBAT SYSTEM * EPSILON * PROTOTYPE
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROTOTYPES:
ALPHA: Really Slow (and didn't work)
BETA: Fastest but didn't work (Unless 10 Foot soldiers can kill 300 out of
900 well trained Jedi Knights at a loss of 5!!!)
DELTA: Faster than some others and almost worked (but didn't)
EPSILON: Faster than some others and works so far.

Pre-Combat Steps:
Step A: Determine the Threat Value(TV) of each Unit. To determine this
you simply use this math equation:
Half Max Hit
+ Half Max Dmg
+ Half Max Dodge
+ Average Hit Points
--------------------
Threat Value
Step B: Determine the Total Number of Troops in the Army.
Step C: Determine the Army's threat value(ATV). You do this by multiplying
the number of troops in each unit with it's corresponding TV.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Combat Steps:
Step A: Determine each Army's Random Factor. Just roll a percentile
die to do this.
Step B: Multiply the ATV and the Random Factor together.
Step C: Compare results in step B.
Step D: Calculate the precent attack of each army:
Army # Troops
----divided by-----
Other Army # Troops
Calculate the precent kill of each army:
ATV
--------
# Troops
Find the dead in army (The side that lost only kills have of the
this ammount):
Current Troops - (Attack Ratio * Kill Ratio of other army)
Find the how many were dead and how many were injured simply
multiply use this equation:
(Attack Ratio * Kill Ratio) * Random Factor (more...)
Page 3
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The remainder is how many were injured.
Step E: Calculate the remaining ATV
(Current Troops divided by Troops before casualties) * ATV
Step F: Keep doing this until one army is dead.
Post-Combat Steps:
Step A: Determine the exact casualties. Figure out how much of the army
remains. To do this divide the present number of troops by the
original number of troops. Then to multiply this figure by ever
unit type to see how many were lost. To determine the exact
casualties take the average of the random ratio for the opposing
army and multiply it against the casualtie figure and you get the
number of dead.
Step B: Laugh at the loser(s).

Ex:
The army "Good Guy" has the following troops:
100 Jedi Knights
1 Robert(Player)
1 Andy(Player)

10 Mecha
The opposing army entitled "Bad Guys" has the following troops:

Step 2: Good Guys -> 2638
Bad Guys -> 1114
Step 3: Good Guys ATV ->
(100[jedi] * 120) + 100[robert] + 0[Andy] + 106[justin] +
(2500[troops] * 70) + (25[X-Wing] * 1350) + (10[mecha] * 3050)
= 251456
Bad Guys ATV ->
190[Darth Vader] + (1000[storm troopers] * 100) + 4400[keith] +
315[Jiblet] + 100[Ron] + (100[Tie Fighter] * 810) +
(10[Gemini Warriors] * 400)
= 190005

COMBAT:
DAY 1 ->
Step 1: Good Guys(G) = 94%
Bad Guys(B) = 49%
Step 2: 251456 * 0.94 = 236369
190005 * 0.49 = 93102
Step 3: Good guys win this battle
Step 4: Ga = 2638/1114 = 2.37
Ba = 1114/2638 = 0.42
Gk = 95 Bk = 171
G Army has 2638 - ((0.42 * 171) / 2 because they lost) = 2602 Troops
B Army has 1114 - (2.37 * 95) = 889 Troops
Step 5: G ATV = 248024
B ATV = 151629
DAY 2 ->
Step 1: G = 73%
B = 53%
Step 2 - 3: 181057 > 80363 (Good guys win)
Step 4: Ga = 2.93 Ba = 0.34 (more...)
Page 8:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gk = 94 Bk = 171
G Army: 2544
B Army: 614
Step 5: G ATV = 242495
B ATV = 104725
You get the idea.
If by some chance the bad guys gave up by now, here are the post-combat
