The end result was that the 1WE was destroyed,/though both kingdoms attacked on a 2. Seems a bit deadly given that - the EL had 6/6/2 brigades (EL/VE/RE vs 7/4/0 for the WE and he had better leaders (two Warlords and a Captain vs three Generals) and wizards were not a factor. And it was on the plains, so no forest boost. Not upset or anything, but that does seem like a major change in what I'm used to. The EL bled quite a bit, too - he lost 17,866 troops to my 19,656 so in that aspect it was fairly even - I just wouldn't have expected casualties on both sides to be so high.
Also, I note that my group had 23,400 troops in it so nearly 4,000 should have survived if the casualty report is accurate.
The number of troop losses in the Conclusion section should be accurate but the battle header section (that lists the troop composition numbers before the battle) doesn't include attrition heading into the battle at this time. So that may be the discrepancy between the two section regarding the number of troops being lost. I'll correct the header section to include attrition and take a look at the battle results in greater detail. After a quick look at the numbers, the EL group should have lost 61% and the WE 92% (not completely destroyed).
