So I just got completely wiped in a fight on the first round in my 9th tournament province. I’m a new player so this isn’t necessarily unexpected, especially since I play on mobile - auto fight only. But I am confused about exactly why. After I lost this one I plugged the numbers into the Elven Architect battle simulator to see if a different combination of troops would let me win or if I would be unable to fight that encounter. I was surprised to see that it predicted a win with my original troop lineup. So... what happened? Is it an invisible-to-me-on-mobile terrain issue? This is the first time I have used a battle simulator. Is this one accurate? I have seen some links to it in the forum. Trying to determine if I should attempt a manual fight before catering.
Enemy troops:
1x Poison dryad - 33
5x Forest warden - 65
1x Senior orc strategist - 33
Based on needles boost to light range (currently 110%), and the fact that my sword dancers are level two while my golems are still level 1, I sent in 5x sword dancers - 108 each. I’ve read that you have better results on autofight sending in five of a kind instead of trying to mix and match units, and this seems to match my own experience. (Let me know if anyone disagrees with this, because that will change my strategy completely.) The battle simulator predicted I would lose about 1.5 squads of sword dancers, which is acceptable for me at this point. That is not at all what happened.
Any tips or advice on ways to win this one would be awesome.
