Combat results table
Encyclopedia : C : CO : COM : Combat results table
A Combat results table or a CRT is used in wargaming to determine the outcome of a battle.
The attacker and defender typically compare their relative strengths and reduce these numbers to a ratio, which corresponds to a column on the table. A die roll is then made using one or more dice and the resulting number is then cross-referenced on the table to find the results of the battle. Game conditions can influence the strength numbers in the form of doubling or halving their numbers, in addition to column shifts that can occur due to terrain, weather or some other factor.
Typical results are:
- Elimination
- Advancing / moving back
- Surrender
- Casualty reduction / partial loss
