Formula for Attacking a Fort

Here is the Formula I use to determine the Number of Cats needed to Take a Fort with no losses.
X = Cat Ratio: Number of Cats Used / Number of Infantry Killed in a Single Turn
Easiest way to Determine this is to send 10 Cats at a fort and target the infantry coming forward.
N = Number of Infantry in the Fort

Forts Lvl 8 or Less:
Shooting Lvl 10 --> Total Cats Needed = N / 5X
All Shooting Levels Below 10 --> Total Cats Needed = N / 4X

Lvl 9 Forts:
Shooting Lvl 8-9 --> Total Cats Needed = N / 5X
All Shooting Levels Below 8 --> Total Cats Needed = N / 4X

In order for this to work, Here is the Attacking Order for the Forts:
1st Attack - Cavs
2nd Attack - Infantry
3rd Attack - Archers
4th Attack - Infantry
5th Attack - Infantry
6th Attack - Infantry
7th Attack - Infantry If there are any left, otherwise Cats
8th Attack - Cats
9th Attack - All Forward to clear Traps and Towers
Lvl 10 Forts:
Shooting Lvl 7-9 --> Total Cats Needed = N / 5X
All Shooting Levels Below 7 --> Total Cats Needed = N / 4X

Thank you so much. This is extremely helpful!

I’d like to try to add this formula in Haypi resources web app.
Can I do it?

sure

great post kcmathews...im glad you are expert now..

Also consider when the NPC ranged troops will be able to shoot units on the backline, depending on field length:

tech 0 .. cats hit the back on turn 6, archers turn 4
tech 1 .. cats hit the back on turn 7, archers turn 5
tech 4 .. cats hit the back on turn 8, archers turn 6
tech 8 .. cats hit the back on turn 9, archers turn 7

Which means if you're still nuking the infantry coming down the field, swap to archers on the applicable turn to avoid a few losses from them. By level 10 forts, you'll want to keep an eye on them.

Done.
Can you please test it to know if it works like you mean? Thanks.

… and thanks beacuse I got 4 level 10 forts with less cats than I calculated with the other formulas
