How did I lose so much?
I was occupying an OP and lost 816k UV while they lost 577k. How is that? An e-mail to Gree only explained fast vs slow units. All of my research for armor and weapons are at level 8. All experimental upgrades are level 6 and standard upgrades are on level 4. No defense grid at their OP.
I believe I could have attacked them with 250 hawks, arty, 150 RT, 150 helicopters and rest tanks and jeeps up to 1050 and took less loss...
Based on Gree's response about the unit speeds and ranges it would lead me to believe I should have lost all of my jeeps or close to it as well since they have a faster speed than Hammer Heads but yet I lose none. Then losing artillery for no reason? Shouldn't my hammer heads, tanks and jeeps have destroyed most everything on their own?
It just seems like the there are some errors in the calculations. If I send 1000 hawks against 1000 hawks I shouldn't lose more hawks then them with better commanders. Of course we won't even go into what the watch battle looked like.
Check this out and see what you think:

Their leadership of commanders covered their army. While you had too many troops for your leadership.

Forgot one... I had a level 35 Psycho also.
Still don't see how 9k units against 800 units would incur that much loss even with leadership.

Your hammerheads took the brunt if the attack. These are quite expensive compared to the tanks and helicopters the other guy lost. So while he lost more units, your low range, front line hammerheads took a pounding, and are far more expensive, yielding an overall unit cost loss.

Well I had several battles since this one and I was losing 700k while they lost 1.2mil+ while I was capping an OP. they tried to occupy it too and lost badly. Bad part was my 50% rebuild rate didnt rebuild at base. Really made for a long day.
