Is it a minor? Even though I pushed over 60%, I thought I was over 40 and more than 25% higher...

@chiquichops 

Victory Level Definitions

A Major Victory is when you win by routing the enemy with between 40% to 59% casualties and a minimum +25% margin.

A Minor Victory is when you win by routing the enemy with 60%+ casualties, with any % margin.

However, if you adjust the winning above score down to 59% and the difference is still +25%, it's upgraded to a Major Victory.

Help me with the calculations Rico.

In this example 37% to 63%= 26% difference.

If I reduce the higher score (in this case 63%) to 59% do I leave the lower score (37%) as it is?  

If that is correct then 37% to 59%= 22% difference.  Is that the method?

Yes, that’s the method.

@chiquichops @otosan @earl-of-grey @cargol @kronenblatt 

Just checking in on the battles -- how are things going so far?

My battle vs @kronenblatt only into the first few turns so far -- festive season slowing things down a bit.

Yup, but first blood has been shed in both battles, and after that it usually picks up pace. 🙂

Bit slow on my side but I'm trying to pick up the pace. Currently difficult to do more than one turn a day, but I'll try my best. odd is that I almost never get an e-mail notification... 🤔

Yes, that email turn notification system can be quite dodgy sometimes.  🙄

The problem is that the email either goes to the Inbox folder or ends up in the Bin or Spam folders, so need to keep track of all of them. Because it could vary over time as well, depending on your email program.

Sometimes they don't seem to get sent ... I've also had the case several times when the emails with the notifications arrived AFTER I had already played the turn. 🙄 😜

I believe that they normally always get sent, but as mentioned it's uncertain where they end up, depending on how your email program and firewall treats them. They could also arrive after the turn has been played because they are sent out with certain frequencies (every 15-20 minutes or so), i.e., not immediately when the game returns back to you.

Bad new for the Counts of Toulouse -- the attack against the Burgundians in DAUPHINE was a complete fiasco -- their archers couldn't miss and our units disrupted and fragmented with gay abandon... double morale drops left right and centre... 🤣   Good victory for @kronenblatt  --  I made it far too easy for him.

Ranged is quite effective against fully armored men at war I found.

Well, I'll check as often as I can and will try my utmost best to not protract things more than absilutely necessary - not that it'd change the outcome the way thigns are going, but it's for fun so who cares... 😆
