I suspect being able to choose a number would be more accurate. You could choose a number like 7 or 50 for an initial burst. Then a larger or smaller number for a second burst. Etc...
That would be supercool!!
Just as you can pick the number of troops you deploy on a tert, from those available to you, you could choose how many troops you use in attacks on a tert, say in multiples of 3 ? Say 33 options taking you from 3 to 99 troops in one burst.
one benefit would be cutting down the complaints about how the die didn't work for someone in an asaault.
Say you have 100 troops to take on 10 defenders. Auto assault could mean you lose 99 troops and the defender only one. unlikely, but things like that happen
. But say you could choose to start off with using 12 troops against the 10 defender. four 3 v 2 troops in one single burst The worst that could happen is you lose all four 3 v 2 attacks ,putting you down to 88 troops and the defender still at 10
. Could give you the tert ,wiping out all the defenders, At least ,should cut the defense down considerably say, losing 6 troops to your 6 troops lost, leaving 94 v 4,
if, in the unlikely but it happens , you lose all 12 troops and don't take a defender, leaving 88 v 10, you can try again. and again, in short bursts. And say at some point it looks like a bad run , you lost 90 troops and the defender only lost two, so you are down to 10 v 8, you can stop.
