Confused

I'm the attacker in green. Max shooting, so field length is 1260. So lets take my side of the field as 0 and the defender side as 1260.

Defender Cat move forward 137 on 2 turns. So at the 3rd turn the Cat is at position 986 on the field.

My Cav move up to position 825, the distance between the defender Cat and my Cav is 161 and Cav range is 48.

Why is my Cav able to hit the defender Cat on the 3rd turn? Am i missing something here?

me too
but never complain about it lol

because with max speed or a huge speed cavs go 3/4ths down the field lol i think its hilarious. but thats how. and since they have higher speed they hit first

no one have any answer?

sorry my answer wasnt good enough <,<

I would say maybe it's because of the fact that the catapults hit you? Also calculate speed + range

It's because of the way battle commands are calculated. It goes something like this:
1 - Check unit speeds.
2 - Fastest unit type moves.
3 - Next fastest unit type moves, and so on.
4 - Check unit speeds. (Just to keep consistency.)
5 - Fastest unit attacks whatever is in range.
6 - Next fastest attack, etc.

Now let's apply it to your situation.
Turn 1:
Your cavs stay, position 0.
Opposing cats move 137, position 1123.
Your cats stay, position 0.

Turn 2:
Your cavs stay, position 0.
Opposing cats move 137, position 986.
Your cats stay, position 0.

Turn 3:
Your cavs move 825, position 825. Distance of 131 to opposing cats.
Opposing cats move 137, position 849. Distance of 24 to your cavs.
Your cats move 137, position 137. Distance of 689 to opposing cats.
Your cavs attack opposing cats. Your opponent's cats are dead.

simply put the turn where your cavs moved forward 825 the enemy cats moved 137 as well, making the distance between your cavs and enemy cats only 24

the battle report can be decieving, movement is done BEFORE attacks are but it doesnt look that way as everything a unit does in a turn is presented on one line

so enemy actually moved to within 24 distance before your cavs attacked

Ahh I see. Thanks. So all unit on the field move, follow by all unit attack. That clears up lots of other question I have.

I also notice, because the defender cats died on that attack, that why the defender cat movement wasn't shown on the report. If my cav didn't killed all the cats in that attack, the report will be a lot clearer as it shows the movement of the defender cat.
