We have received several inquiries about data involving the combats in Kul Tar, and we have decided to release some of the stats about troop losses on both sides in the form of a report. Here it is:

Excellent analysis. I'm sure the trolls will dismiss it but the numbers are plain as day. Nearly 1:1 of cavalry vs. spears? Nice.

Real data instead of trollish remarks?! No way! Great job putting that together. Very interesting.

This is interesting. The numbers seems to favour SIN.

They do, but without knowing the starting strength of each side it is impossible to know.

In the largest naval engagement of WWI the Royal Navy suffered heavier losses than the German Fleet, but it was the German Fleet that remained in port for the rest of the war - because the Royal Navy had a numerical advantage that meant the Germans needed to cause even greater losses to win control of the seas.

If SHARK/VIC have a large enough numerical advantage over SIN then it could be that a 1:1 ratio of cavalry to spears in terms of casualties favours them. Time will tell.

A really neat in-depth analysis!

The kill ratios for the kobolds are extraordinary. How were those achieved?

Most likely stacks of elites from surounding cities then throw in some  desert warfare colleges plus prestige defense for spears and voila :P and ofcourse some awesome defense gaming!

Most likely wrong. As far as I know no elites from surrounding cities were used. To get the answers you best ask the man in the city. He-Man knows how he did it and he will tell one day if he has the urge.

That battle report does not show any elite divisions or customized commanders.

The desert colleges could explain the extra damage.

It would not be the first time I was wrong I also forgat to mention equipment since there is no loss when defending behind walls those I am sure played a key role as well.
