Evil_J Adventure Guides

dont worry, thanks, i always do my own sims everytime

Evil J, let me first say, you're guides are awesome *bows*

In your Major General Guide for Surprise Attack, when it says what generals go where, it says Veteran, instead of Major.
Also .. No Cannons needed for it? dang!


I'd also like to add, your guides say to attack in quick succession. I've done attacks too fast, and some get intercepted.
I've learned, over the time I've been playing, that if you wait for the drum roll to end before sending the next attack, you don't get problems, unless you screwed up the attack in another way (Like I have done more times then I can remember).

True I have been very very lazy about the whole subject of making things understandable.. which is why I am not doing my own guides
Let me try to explain, and let me know if it still doesn't help enough..

Your guide suggests 103 ES as a block for 2nd last camp in whirlwind.. according to my calculations, you get min 4, max 6, and average 4.03 rounds with these troops.
This information is highlighted in purple above..
I suggest that if we use 99ES for the same camp, you get min 4, max 8, and average 5.54 rounds... (highlighted in green above)

While the min rounds is same, the average rounds is 1.5 round higher, and has higher margin of safety, if any one does a mistake while blocking (or if the block was already tight)

HTH
Thanks

Just an FYI:

103ES:
120s block: 96.7%
140s block: 3.3%

99ES:
80s block: 2.6%
100s block: 29.7%
120s block: 19.1%
140s block: 23.8%
160s block: 19.0%
180s block: 5.7%

Your simulations don't take into account the 'battle time' -- just the 'rounds'. We're still waiting for one that does.

You do great work Evil and you are a real service to TSO players.

Your major guide works well

But doesn't guarantee a bone church. :P Someone else got it. blah..will just have to try again.

got a BC on my first WW, dont need to do more now, dont even like the adventure
of all these co-ops i enjoyed tomb raiders, short, low losses, nice loot

I love tomb raiders loot... nice R and B losses only, make sure all you homer-like noobs figure out which player you are in these co-ops, some of the blocks have timing delays due to small landing areas not being able to spread gens out far enough.

The delays, if any, are listed in evil's guides using color-coding for which player is which...

I almost lost 168E today cause I didn't bother to read the guide all the way. Fortunately my retreat beat the lag

No...but good to try it at least once.
