The slider was discussed in another thread recently. Exactly how it works is not clear but here is a rough concept...
The combat calculations for the AI are done normally but the results are increased or decreased by the percentage selected on the slider, depending on whether it is positive or negative. But the final result is still constrained by the normal possible range of results. It has no effect on PBEM.
It will be more complex than that but hopefully that helps.
