Has anyone figured out yet how many troops can be expected to die from each attack? In particular, I'm baffled why I seem to always take much higher casualties than my opponent.
For example, in my most recent battle, the two sides were very evenly matched. There were many rounds in which our riflemen were attacking each other. Army strengths were staying around 5750-vs-5550. When my heroic riflemen attack their heroic riflemen, 13 die. (12 later in the fight, when numbers are lower). When their heroic riflemen attack my heroic riflemen, 21 die.
After watching many fights, it's clear that casualty rates are not random. They're always substantially higher for me. Anyone know why?
Incidently, it's not just riflemen, nor does it have to do with the fact that rifles are stronger defending than attacking. In that same fight, the first turn they killed all 53 of my horsemen. Later on, when I attacked their horsemen, (both cases the horsemen were heroic), I killed a whopping 16.
I'm hoping to figure out how to improve my battle efficiency.
