Cross Wrote:Does anyone remember how we used to convert Marginal or Decisive Victories before the Blitz scoring system was introduced?
That was a very simple and very effective system. I still use it as I think it's much better than the spreadsheet method.
You simply take the points of player 1 and player 2 and convert them in a ratio. For a marginal win you need a 2:1 ratio, for a medium victory a 3:1 ratio, for a decisive victory a 6:1 ratio and for an overwhelming a 8:1 although I use a 10:1 ratio for that as overwhelming victories should be very rare.
It works best IMO if the total VH value is about 75 - 80% of each side's force points for ME's. The 2:1 ratio for a marginal then means you can lose no more than 85 to 90% of your force and still score a marginal victory provided you destroy just about all enemy troops.
I believe that capturing flags shouldn't be enough to win a game, at least not an ME. You also need to preserve enough of your troops to keep it.
