Attack Power: How is it calculated?

General_Mikulski

I’m talking about the attack power that is listed on the War Report for each side and that fluctuates per turn.

I’d really like to know what the formula that the game uses to calculate attack power.

@General_Mikulski It uses the overall attack value. Say, you have 8 infantry, 2 artillery, 1 tank and 1 fighter. It gives you 1 * 8+2 * 2+3 * 1+3 * 1 attack power = 18.

In an attack, wouldn’t the 2 arty increase the attack value of 2 infantry from 1 to 2, resulting in (1 * 6) + (2 * 2) + (2 * 2) + (3 * 1) + (3 * 1) = 20 attack power?

@Midnight_Reaper Since the game can’t know if the ART is located in the same area as INF (and if you’re going to use it with INF), it doesn’t increase the value for this particular purpose.

Do please kindly explain this. Either the game knows that an Arty will be attacking with an Inf before the assault begins (before dice are rolled) or there is a serious problem with this implementation…

@Midnight_Reaper, Of course, it knows when you attack. But it doesn’t know that when it counts “Attack Power” since the units are on the board, and you are not attacking, you can be very well defending. It’s a neutral state, when just overall attack value is taken into consideration.
