Defense and resistance/cs
U Knalganské aliance je uvedeno, že trpaslíci mají v horách dobrou obranu v horách a tské dobré odolnosti, zatímco bandité mají dobrou obranu všude, ale nízké odolnosti. Co to ale přesně znamená?
Defense
Defense in Battle for Wesnoth means, that any unit in game have a chance to dodge the attack. In simple words, unit with better defense is more lucky and only a few hits will hit them. Unit have different defenses on different terrains.
Rebels have access to this Elvish Rangers. They have a lot of experience in surviving in the woods, hills etc. So, this ranger is covering very well in these terrains and there is a very small chance, that someone with sword or bow and arrow will hit this unit. On flat plains, this unit does not have anything, that will help with defense. Defense here is 40%, so from 10 hits, probably 6 will harm this unit, while 4 will be safely dodged. In forest, defense is as high as 70%, so ranger can stay here for much longer time than in the flat plains.
Different unit, like this Merman Spearman, can defend different hexes for a long time. They are generally weak in forests or hills. They even cannot reach mountains. However, when fighting in water, this unit is better than Elvish Ranger. Their defense is 50% in deep water, 60% in shallow water and even 70% in coastal reef.
