Re: Alliance War Guide
R=Min {[ABS (level of the defeated alliance – level of the winning alliance)/2+1], 5}
The prestige gained by the winner = (the equivalent of the defeated alliance’s troops – the equivalent of the winning alliance’s troops/R)/100
Suppose that the defeated alliance loses 10k cats while the winning alliance loses 5k cats.
Case 1: If the two alliance are the same level, then
So the winning alliance gains
Case 2: If the defeated alliance is level 2 and the winning alliance is level 1, then
So the winning alliance gains
even though they defeated a higher level alliance.
I'm not sure what was intended to happen, but this surely can't be it. Some clarification on how the difference in levels of the two opposing alliances truly affects the prestige gained by the winner would be appreciated. In particular, what is the correct formula?
Feel free to check my arithmetic, but I've gone over it many times just in case I missed something.
EDIT: Now includes my computations for the indicated R values that I mentioned.
N.B. The result of Case two would make sense if the winning alliance was the higher level alliance.
EDIT: I realize now that the brackets in the formula for R are denoting the floor function. So in Case 2, R = MINI {1,5} = 1, which makes it much better for this case. However, the following case presents a problem:
Case 3: If the defeated alliance is level 3 and the winning alliance is level 1, then
So the winning alliance gains
even though they defeated an alliance 2 levels higher than them. So there's still a problem. Or I'm still missing something here.
