				In the game Ray Swan #4, winter revolts, I had 10 armies go into the tower and only 4 come out. I think by your tower formula this is technically possible, but seems like extreme overkill and unrealistic in my non-probability major opinion. Can something be done to put a cap on the number of armies that can disappear in one battle? I'm in my third game and to this point have only seen 3 armies max disappear, so I was extremely distressed to see 6 armies get chewed up.     Tends to alter your plans when you supply 5 and a winter revolt takes 6 away. I currently have 10 armies in the tower, so hopefully someone else will feel my wrath if/when they pop out again.    
 
 
Anyone else seen an extreme example like this?    |

				| I've seen extremes like this in both online play and real life. I lost one winter revolt with 8 of my troops to one farmer here on spielbyweb. I have also lost in the real tower with 10 of my troops vs 2 of another players. My worst result after a 2 player game was having 14 of my troops which were stuck in the tower at the end of the game. It can sure ruin a plan but it does indeed happen. |
