Troop Ratio Calculator
📢 Site Update: New Troop Ratio Calculator Deployed! ❄️
Hello Survivors!
We're excited to roll out a brand-new feature to our Whiteout Survival helper tools: the Troop Ratio Calculator! This tool is designed to help you make more strategic decisions when composing your marches based on enemy scout reports.
✨ What's New?
Smart Ratio Recommendations: Input your total march size and the enemy troop counts (Infantry, Lancers, Marksmen) from your scout report.
Counter-Based Logic: The calculator will then suggest an optimal percentage split for your Infantry, Lancers, and Marksmen.
Specific Troop Counts: Alongside percentages, you'll get the exact number of each troop type to send.
Dark Mode UI: Designed with a sleek dark mode interface for comfortable viewing, especially during those late-night gaming sessions!
🧠 How Does It Calculate the Ratios? (The Logic Explained)
The calculator uses a "counter-priority" system based on Whiteout Survival's core combat mechanics:
Infantry are strong against Lancers.
Lancers are strong against Marksmen.
Marksmen are strong against Infantry.
Here's a simplified breakdown of the calculation steps:
Assess Enemy Threats: The tool first looks at the number of each enemy troop type you've reported.
Determine Counter "Need":
The number of enemy Lancers creates a "need" for your Infantry.
The number of enemy Marksmen creates a "need" for your Lancers.
The number of enemy Infantry creates a "need" for your Marksmen.
Proportional Allocation: Your total march capacity is then distributed proportionally based on these calculated "needs." For example, if the highest "need" is for Infantry (because the enemy has many Lancers), a larger portion of your march will be allocated to Infantry.
Zero Enemy Scenario: If the scout report shows no enemy troops (or all counts are zero), the calculator will currently suggest a balanced 33.33% split for each troop type. This provides a general-purpose starting point.
Rounding & Totals: Percentages are calculated and then troop counts are rounded to ensure your total march size is utilized accurately.
🚧 Work in Progress & Future Updates! 🚧
Please remember that this is the first version of the Troop Ratio Calculator. While we've tested it, there's always room for improvement and refinement! We consider this a work in progress.
We're already thinking about potential future enhancements, such as:
More advanced customization options.
Refinements to the core logic based on community feedback.
Consideration for different strategic scenarios.
