Military Efficiency

Base Military Efficiency

Base Military Efficiency = 4/3*(Wage Rate^3)-(8*(Wage Rate^2))+ 22.26*Wage Rate+84.4) * GBP

Rounded to one decimal point, it should return the most accurate values. Wage Rate lies between 50 to 200.

Modifier Type	Active	Otherwise
'Gangbang Protection	Varies, check Link

Offensive Military Efficiency

OME = Base Military Efficiency * Training Ground Bonus * Honor Bonus * Fanaticism

Modifier Type	Active	Otherwise
Fatanaticism	1.05	1
Honor	Refer to table
TG Bonus	Refer to Internal Advisor

Defensive Military Efficiency

DME = (Base Military Efficiency + Forts Bonus) * Minor/Greater Protection * Fanaticism * Plague

Modifier Type	Active	Otherwise
Greater/Minor Protection	1.05	1
Fanaticism	0.97	1
Plague	0.85	1

Attacking

Raw Offense

Raw Off = Soldiers + (Offensive Specs * Offspec value) + (Elites * Elite Attack value) + Horses + [(Mercs+Prisoners)*3]

Modified Offense

Mod Off = Raw Offense * OME * General Bonus * Stance * Personality

OME	check your Military Advisor
General Bonus	1.03 (2 gens), 1.06 (3 gens), 1.09 (4 gens), 1.12 (5 gens - Cleric only)
Stance: Fortified	0.85 (Fortified), 1 otherwise
Personality: Warrior	1.1 (Warrior in war only), 1 otherwise

Attack Times

Attack Time = Base Attack Time * Race Bonus * Personality Bonus * Barracks Bonus * Quick Feet * Anonymity * Stance * Attack Type * War 
* NW Mod + Fog

Modifier Type	Active	Otherwise
Personality: Warrior	0.85	1
Race: Avian	0.75	1
Quick Feet	0.9	1
Anon	1.15	1
Stance: Aggressive	0.9	1
Stance: Fortified	1.15	1
Relations: War	0.80	1
Fog	+3 hours	0

Note: War attack speed is -10% immediately on war declaration, and phases in to a maximum of -20% after 12 hours of war have passed
There is a networth value adjustment for attack times. This adjustment compares your networth to the networth of the province you are planning to attack. If these are close to each other the base attack times as given below are used. If the networth differs, then the base attack time is multiplied, so your attack time is longer. This does not affect intra-KD attacks or in war.

Base Attack Time

Base Attack Times	*Intra KD*	*Same Island*	*Diff Island*
	12.6	14.4	16

Minimum Offense to Win

Random factor is +-3.5% for offense and defense. Off/def ratio needed to win is 0.97. Thus in the worst case (-3.5% offense, +3.5% defense) the borderline winning situation is:

(Mod Off * 0.965) / (Mod Def * 1.035) = 0.97

Which simplifies to:

Mod Off = Mod Def * 0.97 * 1.035 / 0.965

Mod Off = Mod Def * 1.040362694

Therefore, to guarantee a win, you must send a Mod Off that is ~4.04% greater than the defenders Mod Def.

On Conquest attacks, the minimum offense to win is 51% of the opponents defense.

Attack Gains

 Gains = Target Resource * Attack Type * PNF * KNF * GBP * GS * Race * Stance * Relations * Science * Target Stance

Modifier Type	Active	Otherwise
Guard Stations	Variable, check link
Stance/Target Stance	Check your/your target's kingdom page
Gains Science	Check your science page
Race: Orc	1.3	1
Gangbang Protection	Variable, check link
[OOW] Kingdom NW	See Below
Province NW	See Below
Attack Type	See Below

 Province Networth Factor (PNF):
 Relative Province Networth (rpnw) = TargetsNW / SelfNW
 IF rpnw < 0.567, then PNF = 0
 IF 0.567 < rpnw < 0.9, then PNF = 3 * rpnw - 1.7
 IF 0.9 < rpnw < 1.1, then PNF = 1
 IF 1.1 < rpnw < 1.6, then PNF = -2 * rpnw + 3.2
 IF rpnw > 1.6, then PNF = 0

 Kingdom Networth Factor (KNF):
 Relative Kingdom Networth (rknw) = TargetKingdomNW / SelfKingdomNW
 IF rknw < 0.4, then KNF = 0.6666
 IF 0.4 < rknw < 0.9, then KNF = rknw * 2/3 + 0.4
 IF rpnw > 0.9, then KNF = 1

Traditional March

Base gains are 12% and Traditional March gains are capped at 20% of your or your opponent's land, whichever is smaller. In war, this 20% cap is revised to 22% if your opponent's explore pool is not empty.

Plunder

Base gains are 50% gold, 60% food and 60% runes. Max gains is 1.35x base (67.5% gold, 81% runes/food).

Raze

Destroys a portion of the targets land. In war this attack only destroys buildings

Learn

Base gains are 9.375% of each category of science.

Conquest

Base gains are 6.8% land for a full hit, gains are decreased in proportion to the relative offense sent vs. targets defence.

Massacre

Base gains are 9.5% peasants, 8.5% thieves and 5% wizards

Defending

Raw Defense = (Defense Specs * Def Spec Points) + (Elites at Home* Elite's Defense) 
                + (Soldiers * Def Points Sold * Aggression) + Townwatch

Mod Defense = MAX( Raw Defense * Defensive Military Efficiency, Land) * Monarchy Bonus[Hostile/War] * Stance

Modifier Type	Active	Otherwise
Def Spec Points	6 (Elves), 5 (Others)
Elite Defense	Variable
Aggression	0	1
Townwatch	Peasants/4	0
[Hostile+War] Monarchy Bonus	1.1	1
Stance: Fortified	1.15	1

Minimum Defense

All land is protected by a minimum of 1 defense per acre. That is, if you should send every single elite and general out, and release your defense specialists, an opponent would still need to send 1 offence point per acre to conduct a successful attack against you.
