On the merits of number superiority following Halem Anak doctine in Janxtian war with Ully'Andule - case study of Yellowvase Cluster Battle
>ContextGeneral Beancounter battle plan was based the excellent analytic tool of "Value Per Cost" developped by Swall Lieutenant Viqu (
>>6270401)
Total Aristocrat battle-power was estimated to 1123 unit of power [UoP] - however, it is estimated more stationarry in nature, attacked by 300 Ships of the hegemony. UoP was calibrated to be the theoretical equivalent of 1 ship.
>Theatre of operations : The main assault force sent on the Yellowvase Cluster, while two splinter-fleet alpha and beta attacked singled-out small planetary clusters
The Yellowvase Cluster Battle resulted in the complete loss of 2 fringe clusters and almost-complete control of Yellowcase Cluster by Janxtian army.
Janxtian army lost 111 ships, depleting 204 UoP and cutting 8 of the 90 projected UoP by turn.
>Limitation of current study : This thesis details circumstances of a surprise assault - meaning mastery over attackers and target. As the conflict evolve in the future, we might be confronted to defensive situations meaning a need for more adequate tooling to decide between reinforcement and assault. However, the author believe the analysis will remain of great merit to chose attack target for musterable forces.
>Section I/ Superiority advantage : Fire SuppressionThis is the observation of the mechanical effect of "On each round, before rolling, for every 10 points a side outnumbers the other, the smaller side loses a ship/UoP from the numbers advantage."
The goal of the study is to evaluate
On fringe worlds:
Killed 4 UoP on First Cluster
Killed 2 UoP on Second Cluster
On Yellowvase cluster :
Killed 2 UoP on miniyellow moon according to simulations, mattered a little bit as this saved 1 ship (7 instead of 6; see Section II)
Killed 1 UoP on AnthraciteAsteroid according to simulations, didn't matter practically
Killed 6 UoP on GreyRock - which mattered greatly in improving the less-than-ideal outcome.
Killed 5 UoP on Kakimoon.
Killed 16 UoP on Greenclay - helping the Flawless win thanks to the excellent planification of the Assault of our Supreme Leader.
