It could be done, but it means more work, and the work load is starting to get a bit heavy....for now I suggest random CBL (non wiki) battles are done with the host picking the map, maybe pick some that don't get used much, also the map picker should attack I think.

The host picks the map (of course) and its generally considered bad form for the map chooser to choose defence. The LoV helped to solidify this idea as previously you could find games where the host would pick a great defensive map, choose to be the defender -and- choose to be France all at the same time!!!!!!

Its always best to be clear with players what rules you want to use - so, even though something may seem to be commonly in use in the Lobby it doesn't hurt to just spend a moment making sure everyone knows whats going on.

Cheers, M.

Yes, it's like an "unofficial" rule : The host picks map and attacks, sometimes they may defend but NOT with France......but then again there is no official rule, so if someone picks an impossible to attack map and wants to defends with France, you can leave the game - not much point in battles like that.

That is what I fear but says nothing scaring to be perceived as pessimist.

Nice job AnkLrd.

I remark, I am the most dispendious with the live of my soldiers!
Is that partly due to the score chart calculations? Most probably, although also with my clumsy manner to fight.

Cheers, gp.

Absolutely NOT!! :D .
It is very enlightening, bravo and congratulations :) .

My remarks comes from the discussions about modifying, eventualy, the Calculs in the HISTORY-chart.
Sorry, it seems I confused you unwillingly.

Your english is for me best than mine.

Cheers, gp.

I assume AnkLrd is taking the men lost/survive from the N upload data, which is very good and most interesting.

You will always have one of those things, otherwise there is NO wiki battle result,, and the game will be void, and have to be re-fought.

For all results we have to have either the log file uploaded OR a battles result screeenshot posted.

How much you are right!

Fortunately, english mother language speaking people is particularly clever for understand me as well as tolerant about my blunders. However, feel assured I try to do my best despite my resulting sentences.

Cheers for now, gp.
