The success rates on recon missions are the same.
I've reduced the chance to be detected on a successful recon mission.
I've reduced the losses to both parties to 0-5 and 5-10 percent (down from 5-10 and 10-15 percent)

Recon logs will now display both covert and anti covert units/skill levels.

I hope this fixes all the recon issues.

I don't want to make a whole bunch of changes at once and risk having sab come out extremely powerful as it was before a previous patch.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Sabbing is still completely pointless and way out in losses.

With extreme stealth and malice, your 150 Undercover Agents sneak into the realm of xxx. Your Undercover Agents move stealthily through the lands of xxx leaving a trail of destruction.
135 of your Undercover Agents returned to provide this report. with the information on the mission results:
Weapons Destroyed
Name Type Quantity Strength
Machine Gun Turret Defense 1 34/40
P90 Machine gun Attack 1 45/45
Defense /

Offensive Away Team Home Base Guard Undercover Agents CounterIntelligence Agents Regular Civilian
168 1 38 0 641

from my recon 30 seconds before i can clearly see he has zero counter intel agents, yet i lose 10% of my spies sabbing 2 weapons out of the 171 weapons he had, that is a damn JOKE!

P90 Machine gun Attack 170 45/45
Machine Gun Turret Defense ??? 34/40

Can you fix this crap, i am getting sick of beta testing with live resources, i just wasted 15 UU for nothing, that i can't get back.

Re: SAB loss ratio wrong

Found the sabotage issue.

You should no longer always loose spies on sabotage.
If successful there are two chances to loose spies.
The first is if your strength is less than 10-20 percent less than your targets anti covert strength. This can result in a max loss of 5-10 percent of spies sent on the mission.
The second is a 5 percent chance regardless of skill if the target has more than 5 anti covert units trained. This can result in a max loss of 1-5 percent of spies sent.

The two functions are not cumulative in spies lost, the second chance is only active if you have more than 10 percent of the targets anti covert strength.

Re: SAB loss ratio wrong

?? Ok wrong forum but I have not hit you at all yet Epyon. as a matter of fact I tested my sab on someone who was no even a Gou'ald. So either you have more then one account or all that Irish whiskey is going to your head and causing you to halucinate.

And for the record if I had wanted to hit ya I would have done it when you had 120000+ naq out.

Re: SAB loss ratio wrong

Oberaan dont even waste your turns, this guy has become a waste of my good air, and my game rsources, I would however like to point out to admin that i have now tried 8 times to sab this weasel, since he has no spies, no AC, no defense i went after the only thing he has left-i.e. his strike weps- a cpl days ago i got thru a cpl times and was taking down a few weps with every sab attack now all i get is this- again for the last 8 attempts-

"hmmm... not so much of a trail of disaster at all... your troops report the enemy had no weapons, hoping that either they tell the truth, or at least that nobody finds out otherwise... "

Now in my spy report it shows he has 41 strike weps why will it not let me destroy them????

Because it's really easy to hide 41 weapons, but mostly becuase of the rule that limits you to destorying 2 percent of his weapons.

Re: SAB loss ratio wrong

Which is why having wars atm is pointless. Most people soon drop below the sab limit, or the unit-killing limit, or have defs that can be hit with a 50-man attack ;)
