Random Combat
Okay, I hear everyone harping about random combat, so why doesn't someone tell me what their system would be??? Please, something a little more advanced than "4 attack to 3 defense, attacker wins without a scratch." There's a little sarcasm here, but I am actually interested in what people would have done. I would have just made the unit's stats a little more realisticly scaled....

I like how combat works.

There are more sophisticated systems out there, like TOAOW, but I / we have all been working with this kind of system for what, 10-12 years?

I am glad that Firaxis added the hp swings to the editor though, even though I haven't touched it yet, as well as the choice between random or fixed seed.
