Is the fighting iterative? by Entropy Stew 10/16/2017, 1:11pm PDT
As in, you roll for however many units you have, then you subtract enemy units for every hit, enemy does the same, and you both do this until one side is wiped out. If that's how it works, your friend is correct, because you're mistakenly treating the rolls as independent events. The number of rolls you get in round n will be dependent on every roll from round 1 through round n-1, so the 10% advantage snowballs harder the longer a fight lasts.

    Does combat itself become more common later on? Do the numbers you need to roll by to hit get any higher? 10/16/2017, 1:48am PDT NEW
