It finally came to me how it should be and how it will be precise and realistic So you have a BP and 2 dices, now BP/12=value of 1 dice point. When you throw dices you will use the formula dice point*dice value for attack and dice point*(12-dice value) for your own loses, and here comes the part where 12 dice value and huge BP difference get messy, but if it is so like BP difference of 50&higher or 12 on dices you'll use dice value + 1 or -1.
For example I have 120 BP and best75 has 60 BP. And I attack him, so 120/12=10, 60/12=5, I throw 8 so 8*5=40 and 12-7=3, 3*10=30, it is completely realistic, best75 loses 20BP in defense battle,while I lose 30 by attacking a 2 timez smaller army, I'd say I've even got lucky as you need 6-14 times larger force than defender in real life to attack his fortified positions. So in result, I'm victorious,his force must regroup after losing 1/3 of his army, here could modifiers come in like ±1 or 2 dice points.
This actually is pretty realistic in modern warfare and even could be applied to all TWs... |

A. It would help if it was explained what BP stands for. Is it Battle Points? Battle Projection?
B. 8*5 is 40.
C. What exactly does the BP change all I see is a number name to categorize the numbers.
D. Why are you using 12 without explaining what it means? Like I sort of understand it but you never made it clear what 12 is.
E. How do you determine BP? I'm confused on that.
F. What is the difference between a dice point and a dice value? I don't understand what you mean by dice point when there is a dice value. (I assume dice value is the number (1-12) rolled.)
G. Where did you get the equation of "12-7=3, 3*10=30" from?

The Light Bringer , if I recall correctly, Picard had a system similar to this during games he hosted prior to his ban. I worked out a system in a PM chat, and I’ve been meaning to post it somewhere, so I suppose now’s the chance.

A simple design that can be applied to all scenarios. Percentages increase with each age. Say, once the First World War ends in Gaius Julius Caesar ’s RP, the percentages either increase or decrease, depending on if the roll is positive or negative (excluding standard). These can be used for the results of an economic program, the results of testing new equipment, and if we change the percentages for a battle, then it is made more realistic in that the winner of a battle will still sustain losses. .org/image/mmfg27k9n/]  [/url] Edit: Replaced photo Now with Battle Percentages. |

This needs a bit of clarification so it doesn't get lost in translation: The Light Bringer is proposing a dice system for TWs. To understand the context, try to read some TW threads. Chancellor Otto Von Bismarck is proposing a dice system for Alt-Hists, which by nature is less formalized than TWs. In particular, the system came out of the Italian submarine problem, to determine the quality of a certain piece of equipment by roll. |

A) BP is Battle points(battle power)- also known as unit strength B) never do maths at 2AM lol C)BP was used in TWs for getting the overall unit strength D)2dices=12points E)BP is determined mostly by techtree and unit type F)dice point is value of one point, dice value is how much you throw |

The Light Bringer, Theres a mistake when dealing with the losses in your example. 12-7=5 not 3.

The Light Bringer , Theres a mistake when dealing with the losses in your example. 12-7=5 not 3. , said something that could apply in this situation when he answered my multitude of questions "Don't do math at 2 AM." |
