Battle Report#

A battle report is published every  Battle Turn  for every planet that conflict is occurring on. As a player, you will be able to see any battle report from any member of your empire in the combat menu. Battle reports are lost (presumed deleted) after 48 hours.

A battle turn consists of a space battle followed by a ground battle.

The battle report shows the outcome of these battles.

The report shows the attacking unit, the defending unit, the weapon used (and shot order). It then states how many shots were fired, hits scored and kills achieved.

The shot order is an indication of which weapon fired first. Weapons that fire first have the possibility of killing enemy units before they get a chance to fire, reducing their effectiveness.

In some cases, the entity of your forces may be wiped out by a single unit type. An example would be if you have a small group of infantry that get killed by a sniper force. In this case, you will only see information on the sniper unit and any other enemy units will be unknown to you.

At the end of the battle report is a list of losses and remaining forces for each party involved.

Battle reports are useful for allowing you to judge the effectiveness of your units against an enemy and make changes, based on the information you get about their units, that work to your benefit. This is not always an easy thing to do though.
