    Idk whether this is for multiplayer or campaign. I 90% agree with you in a multiplayer sense, campaign is different. In campaign you don't really pick units in the same way, but if it is between melee attack or defense go defense. Actually, in battle your rule sort of holds true but in auto resolve melee defense is much better. In campaign if there is a battle you don't want to fight that you would win anyway a high melee defense army will lose way less troops on auto-resolve than one with high melee attack. The calculation is much more complicated and is more realistic now than it was back in the day, but it still holds true that melee defense is the most important stat in auto-resolve. Also, sidenote I sort of agree with you on the Royal Thorax Swordsmen vs Royal Peltast, mostly because the spolas armor of Royal Peltast makes a 1280 elite infantry die in droves to missile fire as soon as they are shot from an unshielded side, but I barely use either of them in multiplayer. Egypt's whole thing is bringing a few killing tools with good skirmishers, shock cavalry, or elephants/chariots and then just having a horde of cheap crap with lots of javelins.

      @@FightMeTotalWar Yeah np I found your videos trying to show a friend some stuff as he picked up Rome 2 a while ago when it was on sale and is playing it now. I still remember when LegendOfTotalWar did a video of himself just auto-resolve his way through a campaign with just Roraii to prove how busted the auto-resolve was.

    With each hit does the unit health drop by the amount of weapon damage? Or does armor play a role? For instance if a unit has 30 weapon damage and the unit it hits has 65 health with 45 armor does one hit drop the HP down to 35 or will armor reduce the weapon damage on that particular hit?

    For Rome 2, base chance is 40 or 35%?

      because their chance to to hit anything is low and their weapon damage is also on the end of the stick. they can survive for long, but when they can't kill anything, then it's pointless, not to mention they can't move while in Screen. Hoplite wall is better because it give you +5 vs infantries, which translates to 5 melee attack and 5 armor piercing weapon damage, on top of extra melee defense.
