Probabilities

[Igor]

Does anybody know what algorithm is in use in Warbarons for battles, where it was taken from or is it new created by the game creators?

(Or may be there was a discussion on this? I remember something the same was somewhen but don't remember when and where exactly on the forum.)

Igor,

Not sure what algorithm your referring to.

The basic dice rules came from the original Warlords game. Then the Warbarons rules / skills / powers etc were added on top of it.

I meant dice rule. If it came from Warlords, where it came to Warlords from, where this dice rule was firstly created? I remember something that it is connected somehow with poker rules but not sure.

Igor,

I've never heard of it coming from Poker.

I think Steve just created it way back in 1992 era to make a bell curve (that's how it maps out mathematically) instead of linear.
