It looks like the players - once again - have to take care of the game rules themselves. As v1 rules differ from the Europe 1999 -rulebook.

This is the best one I’ve found.

Easy to use and as far as I know very accurate. -
It is not a true odds calculator, but more a combat simulator. Still, it allows you to simulate a combat 10,000x and gives you are really good idea what your average and median results are, as well as your best case/worst case scenarios. Best tool I’ve found by far. Thanks Frood!

Gosh thanks :roll:
Yeah, I’ve never found any actual “odds calculator” - they all seem to work by running many iterations of the battle and then summarizing the results. I think mine gives the most useful summary though.

Except for this one, which is not complete …

http://boards.avalonhill.com/showthread.php?t=710The thread at Avalon Hill has a long discussion about the math involved. Akreider2 was quoting probabilities for some rolls using Frood and it was only off by about 1 percentage point.
Personally, I always prefer true odds.

I have seen other calcs out there but I like froodsters the best. On thing I learned in the Army was KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) His calc sure does that. :-)
