While I understand the game is based on percentages, but something has got to be wrong with this.  It makes my leaders look like killing machines.  For instance, I lose 0 (!) leaders and he loses 8614 (!).  I can understand extreme kill-loss ratios like 1 to 1000, but this is too hilarious.  Could we add coding into the game so that the attacker's losses are a ratio of the defenders losses?  *It would have limited some of his leader's death and not made it look so funny (at least to me)

This has always been the case with leader attacks - large losses no matter how many leaders the defender has...This is the reason why you wont often find leaderers using leader attacks on you, and if it wasn't this way leaderers would have an even larger advantage over indiers.

I guess that does make sense...  too bad I can't use my leaders to do my normal attacking :P

Well if you were to keep 2 or 3 thousand huts you could, against other indiers anyway...Even just having a couple of hundred thousand leaders you would have more than most other indiers, and you would be able to espy them, and even use leaders to attack them for land, saving you losses in troops...in fact, producing troops while you attack with leaders lol.

yea, although I now go with the policy- if you are an indy and you have 1% huts, you have just wasted .99% of your land

and I kinda meant this is as a joke originally, but could there possibly be an option to turn leaders into troops?  like some spell that would take 1% of your leaders, mult. by your mage ratio, then mult. by some unknown troop ratio to turn into soldiers like skiffs?
*its essentially like the wildcat's ability but for leaders instead of workers*
