Playing the XL mod (Seljuks, Early, Hard) Does anyone know how naval battles are calculated? I've just lost 19 baggalas in one action (well, two, in the same area) against a similar number of English barques. And I've had similar heavy defeats in this game. Barques only have 1 attack against a baggala's 2 defence so on the face of it the bagalas should have their fair share of successes but it's not really happening. I know there is a random element but ihe losses are so one-sided that something else must be happening. None of the barques have more than 1 star and a lot of my ships do (did) also.
Barques have a speed of 3 to the baggala's 2, I wonder how much of an effect that has...
I thrash them on land though
I should have mentioned that while I lost 19 ships, the English lost just 1 :(
