Wars (Revolution)

Here is the detailed guide to the war algorithm for the map game Revolution. The results of wars can also be found here.

The wars

 * When a war is going on, battles will be fought. One big battle will happen in every turn on every front. The result of that battle will be calculated by this algorithm.
 * The place of the battle (if not declared by any of the fighting players) will be randomly chosen by the mod who is calculating the algorithm.
 * The winner of the battle conquers nearby lands.
 * Naval battles may happen too; they are named after the seazone or a nearby port.
 * The algorithms posted should always match the formatting of the examples shown below. War names must be 2nd level Headings.
 * The side with more points wins. If the points are the same then the battle is inconclusive.
 * The luck factor has to be calculated via random.org. You must randomise an x integer where
 * 0 <= x <=1.


 * If x=0, then the defender gets a point, if x=1 then the attacker.

 * Whose capital is closer: +1
 * Who is defending their homeland: +1
 * Morale (who won the last battle): +1
 * Better leader: +1
 * More suitable terrain: +1
 * Luck: +1
