Adjustments to the turnblocking update.

1.10% or 15% instead of 50%,
10% would be 1-14 units would be 1 unit to block, 15-24 would be 2 to block.
15% would be 1-9 units would take 1 unit 10-16 is 2, 17-24 would be 3 etc.

this is making it progressively harder to block larger stacks, lower stacks are still useful to block.

2.Units that are not moving are not added to the percentage.
say for example there are 30 bombers and 8 militia in the kiev, and you move out the bombers but not the militia
30/100*15 = 4.5, so 5 units would be needed to block the stack instead of 38/100*15 = 5.7, 6 units to block.

3.It only takes one unit to block moving militia.
so for example, i have a stack of 10 infantry and 30 milita
10/100*15 = 1.5 so 2 units to block +1 1 for the militia makes 3 units to block the stack.


thoughts?
personally i think 10% would be better than 15%
and easily calculable mid game

p.s. while i am here, do turnblocks count to the stack the player can see in the city, or the stack that can be possibly created, because if it is the stack you have created, it will make it even harder to turnblock because you will have to predict whether or not they will make units in the city or not.

10 or 15% is way too low. 1 unit should not be able to block 14; 2 should not be able to block 24.

Maybe Amok knows the answer to your PS...

Like i said, this is to still make it useful to turnblock smaller stacks, leaving some of the strategical gameplay for expanding early in the game intact, especially in Europe, but the bigger your stack is, the harder it is for your enemy to block it.

It's a compromise, instead of totally removing turnblocking as a feature, make it slightly harder to do it.

I agree with the thread.

In my opinion, it should be somewhere between 10-25%.

In my opinion, it should stay as it was.
At least: If I attack a 100 units stack with 50 units, the block chance should be 100%.
