Please !!! explain me this battle

[peluc]

your class 3 vs enemy class 3: V ^
you:
31 cruisers
21 dominators
enemy:
60 cruisers

15 dominators jam 30 ships
1 time-anomaly causes the return of 1 ship
30 cruisers vs 30 cruisers

19 cruisers vs 19 cruisers
11 cruisers vs 11 dominators

losses:
you :
19 cruisers
11 dominators
enemy :
30 cruisers
score in this subbattle: -118

1/Why 15 of my dominators only attack ? Why not the hole 21 ?
Are the "classic" cruisers the first to be involve a same class battle ? and the other kind of clas 3 adapt to that ?

2/ Why only 30 of my 31 cruisers attack ?

3/ How does Spacetrace chose to attack 19 of my cruiser and 11 dominators ? Why didn't it chose 30 cruisers against my 30 cruisers ?

4/ Enemy losts=30x60=1800 MP
My losts=19x60+11x70=1910 MP
Difference=-110 and not -118 ??

First off all battles are at random next your dominators cost 70mp to build and the cruisers only cost 60 mp so if you add up the number of dominators you lost via the number of cruiers your enemy lost you would come up with you being the one hwo lost more Mp then them.

1- your enemy has 60 cruisers. The number of your ships that will fight, is the number needed to destroy 60's enemy's ships. As you can see, you only need 15 dominators to jam 30 cruiser (not to destroy them, so you dont win any points by jamming) and the rest 30 cruisers will be destroy by the other 30 of yours.
the fight could also go this way:

you:
31 cruisers
21 dominators
enemy:
60 cruisers

20 dominators jam 40 ships
1 time-anomaly causes the return of 1 ship
20 cruisers vs 20 cruisers

9 cruisers vs 9 cruisers
11 cruisers vs 11 dominators

losses:
you :
9 cruisers
11 dominators
enemy :
20 cruisers

score in this subbattle: -110


the number of every kindship that fights to destroy enemys ships is random too.

3- there is no choosing, as i said, it is random

[Liderant]

ah, and i forgot, the score is -118 because one enemy destroyer was reconstructed as you can see: "1 time-anomaly causes the return of 1 ship"
so the 8 points you won by destroying that destroyer, now you lose them because of the dominators
