I think they flipped coins at the end,... and the NPC just had bad luck. Or Fluffy really has some spell for magically influencing coins in midair  |

| Do the commanders recover the 99 health points faster than it would take to resurrect the commander if they had died? |

| Anjire, they will recover enough to surive the next battle if victorious. |

I am more curious as to which would net a faster return to full health. (2 per hour base means at least 2 full days, right?) |

That would depend on how high the commander's level at death is. Bigger cmdrs take longer to resurrect.
But 100% health is not important.

If your Cmdr has a battle at 100% and loses 25% health. Now he is at 75%. And lets say his health is now 75/100
In his next battle, again he loses 25% health...This time it is 75 health x 25% = 18.75...so 19 points lost ...remaining health = 56.
As long as he wins the battle, no matter his starting health, he will survive (excepting Defy Death randomness).
Battle 1 (16% damage)
2nd battle less than 1 hour later (8% Damage):

Good commanders. They have a HUGE effect on the outcome of battles. ------------- Soon, very soon, my name will become synonymous with chicken alfredo.... mmm.... chicken alfredo.... |

I don't think that Fluffy's outcome was heavily influenced by commanders. First off, Fluffy was on attack with T2 Cav leading T1 swords. So leader divisional attack bonuses were not applicable.
Also, Fluffy attack with 662 units vs. 1926 units. Roughly a 1:3 ratio which he just eeked out a win with. But this ratio of 1:3 is about what I experience when I attacked NPC's. So I think this outcome was predicitable to be close as it was.

| actually, both my commanders are fully leveled in personal attack and axeman division bonus :) |

| As I understand Divisional Attack Bonuses are only applied to the same unit type as the Cmdr. So your Runerider Cmdrs would only apply Divisional Attack bonuses to Cav units under thier command. The Axemen would receive no Divisional Attack bonus from the Runerider Cmdrs. |

| why would there be divisional attack bonuses for other unit types then? If an axemen couldn't recieve a bonus from a runerider commander, why would that skill even be available then? |
Posted By: The_Dude

| Those Attack bonuses are telling what type of Defending Unit the bonus applies to. So a Runerider with Division Sword Attack bonus will apply that bonus to his division's Runeriders attacking Sword units. |

Division attack bonuses apply to that type of troop. So the sword ones give the bonus to sword units attacking... |
