combat still borked

Okay so my strength is 4. My bonuses are +20%, + 25%, +10% which should give a final of 55% or an effective strength of 6.2.

The strength of the elephant is 8. It has a 75% terrain bonus which should give it a strength of 14.

So the odds are really 6.2 vs 14.

Not 10.00 vs 4.21 95.5% for me!!!

Aside from the nonexistent defensive terrain bonus (already pointed out by someone else) you're also forgetting the Hunter's natural +50% vs animals bonus. This matchup should actually be VERY close (with the Hunter having the slight advantage.)

im still noticing weird things in 0.23c, like 1 hunter with no promotions versus another hunter with no promotions, both full health, combat saying 4.00 vs 4.00 and getting 60% odds.
also an even weirder situation where a horseman is attacking an archer across a river, it lists something like 3.00 versus 5.00, with 55% odds in favour of the horseman.

did the unit cross a river previously?
i hear kael say something to the effect that the -x% stays even if the unit isn't fighting something directly across the river....

screenies plz?

no the unit did not cross a river, it had been there for a while lol
but the horseman did have to cross the river to attack. i dont know whats up, but atm i just cant play 0.23c heh, keep losing amazing units on 99.x% odds with about a 50% chance.
