OK I'll post in this one... it's my kinda thread.

Lets keep things simple and maths free for Zoid's sake! (sorry)

lets say that if a planet has 1mil pop and you drop 1mil on it... everyone dies.
Lets say then if a planet has 1mil pop and you drop 2mil on it... 1 mil of your population survives - YAY.

Now lets say that the planet has 100 defenses (the coverage itself isn't important) - those defenses can take out 75% of the dropped forces.
So you drop that same 2 mil onto 1mil: 1.5mil of your people die before they land. So 500k of your people get slaughtered by their 1mil and they are left with 500k of people.

If you dropped 4mil... 3mil die, 1mil land and take on their 1mil... we're back to square 1.. everyone dies.

Thats the maths that i KNOW. There may be a degree of random factor in this fomula.

Well, the attacker gets a bonus so 1mil vs 1 mil will let the attacker win with some pop left.
Also don't forget that IS players get a defender bonus, and WM get an attacker bonus ...
