Authordamage , urgent :)
Hello :)

what is better for me +4 atack and 20% meelee atack or just +10 atack ?
depends on the difference between attack and defence between your units and the enemy.
see for example this post i made earlier;
https://www.lordswm.com/forum_messages.php?tid=2095425&page=0#33298772

Damage = N * RND(min, max) * [1 + 0.05 (A-D) ] * [1 - 3*Y/100]

to find the spot where it becomes equal:


1.20 * N * RND(min, max) * [1 + 0.05 (A+4-D) ] * [1 - 3*Y/100] = N * RND(min, max) * [1 + 0.05 (A+10-D) ] * [1 - 3*Y/100]

we can reduce this to
1.20*(1+0.05*(A+4-D)) = (1+0.05*(A+10-D))
etc
+4 atack and 20% meelee atackfor melee creatures
+10 atack for shooter creatures
1.20 + 1.20 * 0.05 * 4 + 1.20 * 0.05 * ( A - D ) = 1 + 0.05 * 10 + 0.05 * ( A - D )
1.44 + 0.06 * ( A - D ) = 1.5 + 0.05 * ( A - D )
0.01 * ( A - D ) = 0.06
( A - D ) = 6

So if your troops attack is 6 higher than enemys defence melee units will deal the same damage (but your shooters will deal less damage because they do not get the 20% damage bonus).
If attack is more than 6 greater than the defence, then the 20% melee damage bonus is better.
And if the difference between your attack and enemy defence is smaller than 6, then the 10 attack is better.

But it can happen that for some units of your army the gap is smaller than 6 while for other units the gap is larger than 6.
