In combat with 18 might vs 9 might, does the player with 9 might still kill some units if the opponent has small units with 3 and 2 health?

Ruling: Yes, both players distribute their might as damage to enemy units regardless of who has more might. Each player decides how to distribute their own damage.

Sequence:

  • Each player sums their might
  • Each player distributes their might as damage to enemy units with restrictions:
    • Must obey ordering from abilities like Tank
    • Must assign lethal damage to one unit before assigning to the next unit
    • Cannot overassign damage unless it's the last unit
  • All units with lethal damage die simultaneously
  • Attacker states damage dealt first

Nuances:

  • Combat is not "winner takes all" - both players deal damage even if one has significantly more might
  • At the end of most combats only one player remains, but there are some exceptions
