Interpreting the Battle Statistics (UPDATED)
Kaan the Great
I just tabulated the battle stats so far from the US vs. Russia war. The numbers you get when you click on the details button next to the war banner. I came to some interesting conclusions:
1- Overall we are doing more damage. All of PEACE combined fought 339,931 fights and did 11,779,509 damage to FORTIS/EDEN' 335,044 fights and 12,323,244 damage. Now I'm no expert, but this indicates that we could be doing much better.
2- As a whole, we do more damage per fight. The average FORTIS/EDEN fight nets 36.78 damage to PEACE's 34.65. This means either that our players are of higher rank and strength or more likely that as a whole we've been tanking more than PEACE.
3- The scene changes when we look at individual countries. eUSA did an avarage of 36.81 damage, well below Indonesia's 50.08. America has been going head to head with Indonesia in total damage at 5,559,547 against their 5,666,700. Either American players are all really low level or we haven't started serious tanking.
Now for some interesting but useless factoids.
Of all involved countries Switzerland did the most damage per fight at a whopping 80,65 per fight followed by Sweden (63.69) and Norway (54.7
😎. All top three hitters are from FORTIS/EDEN
Amongst the PEACE countries the top hitter is Italy with 52.65 followed by Indonesia (50.0
😎and Iran (43.49).
EXTRA
eR Time: 10.24 (Next Day)
Unfortunately I must eat humble pie. California was close but it looks like I under estimated the second PEACE wave. There were definitely troops involved besides Indonesians, I spotted some Hungarians and Turks but doubtless there were more. Though even in defeat we should hold our heads high, being American is reason enough to be proud.
eR Time: 16.26
The wall in California continues to rise in anticipation of a second Indonesian attack, and we are almost back in no mans land.
eR Time: 14.20
I'm calling a win for us in California. But before we break out the bubbly, lets keep fighting and see it through to the end. It seems the main Indonesian assault is over. As I am writing right now its 4.20 AM in Jakarta (/me hits the bong). But it seems reasonable to expect a second wave of Indonesian tanks in 3-5 hours so keep building that wall.
Love and Peace to you all,
and Fsck PEACE

you're right
high damage means nothing if it isn't coordinated properly
@PimpDollaz is right on the money, as usual.
The problem with the eUS is that we do not appear to approach the game with the same level of maniacal zeal as the typical, say, eHungarian. My God, man, do you realize that they get together socially, in R/L, bake cakes with one another, decorate the cakes to look like the American flag (only with Hungarian colors) and then eat them?
Am I saying we must do the same? Am I suggesting that we need to come together and bake cakes? Good God, no, man. In fact, I can think of approximately twenty three thousand other things I would rather do, and putting my hand in the garbage disposal is one of them.
So, what am I suggesting? Actually, I have no idea, I've forgotten.
Carry on.
Good article, BTW. Voted and subscribed.
I wish I could find estimates on how much gold each side has spent. I've heard that PEACE has been burning through it like wildfire, which would spell their doom, but appearently FORTIS/EDEN has been tanking more. It will be money that determines the outcome, mark my words.
I sincerely hope not.
Fortis/EDEN people look at it as a test of wills, and while they have money to spend, don't, because we have a cultural bias against it. We think it should be decided by smarts, persuasion, and determination.
PEACE thinks nothing of taking out their credit cards, and buying gold packs. This is a for-profit game after all.
If I'm right about my theory, PEACE will eventually buy the "New World", no matter what we do.

Apparently PEACE robbed the North Korean Central bank. http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/north-korean-treasury-robbed-875389/1/20" target="_blank">http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/nort[..]1/20
