Just played through it tonight. This was my first D&D.Sci, found it quite difficult and learned a a few things while working on it.
Initially I tried to figure out the best counters and found a few patterns (flamethrowers were especially good against certain units). I then tried to look and adjust for any chronology, but after tinkering around for a while without getting anywhere I gave up on that. Eventually I just went with a pretty brainless ML approach.
I ended up sending squads for 5 and 6 which managed a 13.89% and 53.15% chance of surviving, I think it’s good I’m not in charge of any soldiers in real life!
Overall I had good fun, and I’m looking forward to looking at the next one.
