Yup it is officially screw Italy over day. Got the Frenchmen coming at me from the west, the Hungarians from the east, Germans from the north and Moroccans from the south. This folks is what we call a worst case scenario invasion.

I'm suddenly reminded of this though.

I'm about done with Supremacy for good.

Granted this shit is only happening with this one guy, but it's happening in both games I am in with him and it's a bunch of bs.

First I have abut 25k troops sitting in a lvl 1 fort. He attacks with a force of 15k troops with lower morale and not only defeats my army and takes the city, but still has 10k troops left over when the fighting is done.

In the next set up on a different game, he attacks my force of 21k troops with 10k, again with higher morale on my side, and not only wipes it out completely, but doesn't take even ONE unit of casualties.

If this bullshit continues I'n not playing the game anymore...

Either this Krathose kid is lucky, cheating, or the game is glitchy as shit.

EDIT: In this latest battle with him I have a force of 85k against him defending in a lvl 1 fort with 35k. I once again have a 10% morale bonus over him. If I lose I'm done with the game...

I say cheating. Why else would he attack your 21k with 10k, if he didn't already expect to win?

This isn't exactly uncommon. My brother has similar problems and in my 2nd game I ran into this with Arabia.

There's two methods of doing what he did - either A count on the RNG to roll his way (best chance of this happening is if both troop and province morale is below 50% loyalty, my brother is plauged by your problem, and I've noticed that in every case he's facing these losses on provinces that have less than 50% morale while constant battle has worn his troops down to about 40%); or he can do B - which is break up his 15/10k into smaller batches of 5k. The game combat system counts each seperate unit as a different battle up to 20 divisions (meaning, if you have 25k, only 20k count as in battle each hour tick, the rest are treated as reserves waiting to replace frontline losses). However, the latter method is tricky because 99% of the time the attacker loses more than the defender (I've used the technique a lot and usually it does cost me more, but not always).

This kid's definitely getting lucky - but check the province morale. If it's low, then this will keep happening. If it's high, then he's on a lucky streak and you've just gotta wait it out. Trust me, his streak will end.

Is this why I end up seeing a lot of people rushing around without stacking units so they are attacking with multiples stacks of 9 or 18 guys instead of one stack of 50?

Yes, though in such cases they are idiots. Stacks are best used with an Inf/Tank mix, or with Artillery support at the very minimum. If they're rushing with Infantry only then they're probably sustaining severe losses.

Also, when traveling overland, it's better to keep your army together. Only divide them when you're close to the target. I made that mistake a Railgun once, and only once. I lost 80 divs to one MFing Railgun that way.

Lol. Well I was talking early game when people are using infantry to expand into territories to try and make up for resource loss.

Like first day of a game in one, I saw morocco attack with 8 stacks of 9 on one city in Portugal.

Then I sent in a stack of 54 and killed them all and had 30 left >>.

lulz, ruthless, I like it.

Typically, I'll never breach any AI country with anything less than 150 men in a solid unit to absorb counterattacks. It's a rule that's allowed me to occupy entire countries in 48 hours on the 30-player maps.
