Defense is basically evasion then? The units then get armour ratings?

It's considered parry, or blocking for defense. And armor is a direct reduction of incoming damage from hits that land. Armor is separated into damage types as well.

So I guess a better question is, does parrying/blocking negate all damage done to the unit?
And is the progression of damage like: chance to hit, then chance to block/parry, then midigation?

interesting development of attack.damage. It seems unecessarily complicated to me, but it wil probably work for the better.

So defense would be a good statistic to improve for castle defense? Less likely to be hit by arrows from the attacking team, prolonging the tme to shoot them down

This looks better and better and deeper and deeper all the darn time.. :P


Can't wait to play it..

I suppose the way I wrote it wasn't clear - attack rating and defense is for melee determining if you hit. For ranged attack rating determines spread and defense does nothing. You cannot parry arrows :P

You cannot parry arrows :P

Yes you can. Theoretically, anyway . Jedi can do it

Hey now, don't go into absurdities. Ever seen star wars? It is clear that the jedi can only block laser shots. They can not block things from the ancient times... however they can block futuristic weapons, i mean i bet the jedi's would all die if you brought along an m16 and started shooting on one of those battlefields
