Militant Turkey: 66  Base combat strength
Mil Rank 3, Mil tech 8.0, Sum Basic Strength: 66, Final Combat Strength: 4224

Odds are 23297/4224 = 5.51 which becomes 5:1 odds, shifted 1 to the left for Persian support PA, shifted 2(3-2)=2 the right for difference in Military Rank, Final Odds 6:1

Results: 20%/5=4% loss to Attacker, 80%/5=16% loss to Defender,

Germany, France, NordicFed, and Russia: 0.04 X 66 available hits =  12.6 = 13
Germany loses unit#101, 207
Russia loses unit#190, 540

Faction Militant Turkey loses: 0.16 X 66 available hits =  10.56 = 11
Faction Militant Turkey: Reduced to 55 Base combat strength


Faction Militant Turkey withdraws in disorder back to Turkey and is absorbed into Turkey. No further combat is expected.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Ending Note
Your GM knows of no further combat involving the PCs; so unless I hear otherwise, this is your end of the turn warning. You will have until March 8, 2019 12:00 UTC if you want to order more combat or expend Response PApoints, etc., otherwise the Turn will be closed then and we will move onto the 2055-2059 Turn.

Quick Combat Round#1

I guess this is due to your haste in solving the turn (that I thank you for), and, as always, I’m not asking tor any revision, just trying to make this post educational, but the final result is that I see some errors in its solving:

  • According the units list spreadsheet, all units but #190 are reserve, so they shouldn’t have been able to participate in an attack force (8.6)
  • The column shift was wrongly applied, if we have to believe your own clarification in post #493 in the rules thread.
  • In the results, you wrote for the attacking force 0.04 x 66 =12.3, while should be 0.04 x 313 = 12.6. As the result is the same, though, this point is irrelevant, listed hereonly for completeness.


Relevant quotes:


From Rules
quote:
8.6: Quality Level
Reserve: <snip>. Units with ‘Reserve’ Quality level may not be part of an Attacker’s force in combat,

From Rules Discussion thread:

Msg #491:
Germany:
Some more comments about Combat Rules:

10.5 Battle Resolution

quote:
For simplicity of display, odds greater than 10:1 and less than 1:10 are grouped together but each integer multiple still counts as a separate column for purposes of column shifting.


In case of odds between 10: and 1:10, does this not apply (so if odds is 10:1, but 3 colum shifts in defender favor, would it be column 3:1, that represents 3 full columns, or 7-10:1, that represents 3 integer less)?

Msg #493:

Referee:
> In case of odds between 10: and 1:10, does this not apply
If it applied, I would have said so.

Quick Combat Round#1

In reply to Germany (msg # 4):

Well then, all I can say is that the beatings will continue until moral improves!

I have a wedding coming up on Saturday (not mine but I'm best man), so I've been a little out of it this past couple of weeks as that's hit home and I've had stuff to do.

Progress is being (and has been) made and posts will come when things are ready to be published.

The news is done and formatted - it just needs to be checked over for my usual spelling mistakes and to make sure its all good for publishing - this will be posted once we're happy with it all.
