eUSA and War Tactics - August 4th 2009
I will admit I made extremely bad decisions yesterday. Retreat Arkansas, Fight in Wyoming. Both very bad decisions in hindsight. We did great yesterday. We secured Arkansas, Maryland and Texas. Lost Wyoming. I'd like to congratulate our leaders on a job well done for yesterday.
Onto today. Let's start like normal with Indonesia.
Stats done 05:26 Day 624
Indonesia
Lost Attack On Arkansas (102 Citizens)
Retreted Texas (1114 Citizens Q5 Defense)
Attacked Texas (1114 Citizens Q5 Defense)
Total War Damage Today
USA: 9,011,646
Indonesia: 8,333,803
USA: +677,843
Total War Damage Yesterday
USA: 7,887,930
Indonesia: 7,596,873
USA: +291,057
Damage Last 24 Hours
USA: 1,123,716
Indonesia: 736,930
I wont say my stats are 100% correct, but they are pretty close. Based on those stats it looked like Indonesia held back on Texas, and USA went all out. It will be interesting to see what the stats are tomorrow to give a better indication. As this is only the first day doing 24 hour damage I don't know how strong Indonesia really is. They have paid a crap-ton of gold to attack Texas twice, I believe they must be going to throw everything they have at it today.
Let's move to Russia.
Russia
Won Wyoming (41 Citizens)
Attacked Wisconsin (203 Citizens)
Total War Damage Today
USA: 19,248,362
Russia: 18,324,831
USA: +923,531
Total War Damage Yesterday
USA: 19,010,606
Russia: 17,815,871
USA: +1,194,735
Damage Last 24 Hours
USA: 237,756
Russia: 508,960
This is pretty boring. Russia attacked Wyoming. USA didn't care, Russia won. Russia attacks Wisconsin, another easy target, while USA focuses on Texas.
To Portugal
Portugal
Lost Attack On Maryland (209 Citizens, Q3 Defense)
Attacked Arkansas (102 Citizens)
Total War Damage Today
USA: 4,894,560
Portugal: 4,972,698
Portugal: +78,138
Total War Damage Yesterday
USA: 4,364,277
Portugal: 4,121,168
USA: +243,109
Damage Last 24 Hours
USA: 530,283
Portugal: 851,530
I'm thinking I screwed up my calculations yesterday. Portugal seemed to put out way too much damage to have lost the battle at Maryland. Then again maybe I'm underestimating a Defense System. This was a big surprise. They've focused attention on Arkansas instead today.
Onto France
France
Won New Brunswick (79 Citizens)
Total War Damage Today
Canada: 15,901,979
France: 18,284,237
France: +2,382,258
Total War Damage Yesterday
Canada: 15,703,653
France: 17,944,505
France: +2,240,852
Damage Last 24 Hours
Canada: 198,326
France: 339,732
No surprise here. I do feel sorry for Canada. France does not seem to be doing that much damage and could be easily defended by USA if they didn't have problems for themselves. I don't see how France will capture Ontario with that sort of damage.
Hungary
Won North Dakota (16 Citizens)
Total War Damage Today
Canada: 286,335
Hungary: 1,862,185
Hungary: +1,575,850
Total War Damage Yesterday
???
Damage Last 24 Hours
???
I didn't do Hungary yesterday, but decided to do it today. Nothing here to really talk about.
That's the end of damage calculations. After my hugely wrong thoughts yesterday on what we should do I'm a little nervous today but here goes. I'm not going to go too crazy anymore until I understand eRep rules a little better.
We need to stand our ground on Texas. This is do or die. Indonesia will hit it hard at the start of tomorrow. If we are not ready for it we're done for. We should be getting everyone to hold putting damage on Texas for as long as possible to stop them from retreating from our wall of damage. If we defend Texas for another day this will hurt Indonesia gold funds badly as they are paying somewhere in the sum of 350gp to attack Texas each time. As for rest of fights in Wisconsin and Arkansas it seems our best bet at winning another is Wisconsin based on the damage that Russia put out yesterday.
Please let me know what you guys think by comment on this article. Don't forget to vote and subscribe. I'll be back tomorrow with more damages and to see how things played out.
Please vote on the article so others can stay informed. I believe this article is more important than most that are voted for.
Thanks guys.

I like the damage stats in this paper...fills a void for sure. voted/already sub'd
I really like the stats, thanks. I started writing a very concise summary for the 2-clickers and I'll start referencing your articles there for those who want a bit more info.

Attacking Texas costs indonesia roughly 320 gold. That is 2 full tankings, which would bring about 60k damage. Now calculate how much American damage is wasted there 😉
The real attack will most likely come at the same time as the one on Ontario, and we proved time and time again that we are unbeatable if we figth full force on both fronts.
I eats a Fry, it be gud!
Do you have damage breakdowns for MPPs on each side? Really enjoy the stats you have (v+s) but more details welcome too!
Seamus Harper - I'll see what I can do in the next few days. Due to the decent response I'm getting I might have to design some kind of spread sheet with all country's damages so I can list MPP damages of country's as yes that would be very helpful information.
