[MWC]-Advanced Shield Mechanics
This article is for people who already know everything in this article by cheetah http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/guide-to-the-defence-shield-2327376/1/20
If you don’t know all of this then just don’t bother reading and scroll down for bonus pics
Now today I was able to calculate reasonably accurately how much shield Norway would lose for future readers
eUK attacked Norway with 1 region and 10 bil shield
eUK drained almost 5.7 billion from this shield
This came as a surprise to a lot of people and therefore I felt the need to make this article
To make my prediction I had to know 2 things
1. How to calculate fairly accurately how much damage has been done in a round (this was also useful for the EPIC warfare competition when it was handy to know when a round was close to 3 billion)
2. Exactly how damage is taken off shields
I shall explain both
1. Calculating how much damage has been done
full sized version http://i.imgur.com/kgmAexF.png
and just to double check this
shield +eUK= 81,079,531
ireland = 27,798,624
total damage =108,878,155
irish percentage =25.53%
actual Irish percentage shown 25.41%
So the method is reasonably accurate and is even better if you can measure the pixels better than I did
2. right in the case of Norway they had 1.4 billion shield damage in div 4 per round
now lets say eUK do 1.4 billion damage and Norway do 100 billion damage
that shield is gone there’s absolutely nothing Norway could do as the shield takes the damage first
as it goes eUK div 4 and allies did about 700-705 mil per round (averaged out)
also div1,2,3 knocked some off too it didn’t matter what Norway did that shield took the damage
tiny detail
ok so just to make this clear just in case
In the next battle (on their soil) Norway will have about 600 million in shield bonus per round if eUK were to do 1 bill one round and then 400 mil next round then from the second round 200 mil would be left the damage would not carry over from the first round.

wasn't it just
I win this round!

using the length of the quantifiable shield value to create a dmg metric..
my hat goes off to you devildog

Quality analysis of the fubar shield mechanics.
I think many of us threw ourselves off the scent on this by trying to impart some form of strategy to it.
How silly of us... strategy exited the building a long time ago.
I find the strategy that works the best is that if it doesn't work the first time, throw some more damage at it and it will eventually \o/

Conclusion; eUK must spend more gold.
Pics a looooot more interesting than the text, couldnt care less about shield, except for the redhair chick in the avengers, voted anyways cuz that pic of the apologizing fag calling kid gave me an idea to tick off mine!
🙂
