| The AI got knockback on me too many times during this fight: https://www.lordswm.com/warlog.php?lt=-1&warid=14281421
 
 That ended up costing me the fight. See the beginning of the fight where I lost close to 20 guardians before they could even land 1 hit! That's not fair! How is it possible that 14 ogres can knockback 65 guardians like that TWICE IN A ROW!!?? :-@!
 | 
| My multi swordmen stun 3 time in a row :) But i forget which fight, lazy to find it out :P
 | 
| In your fight, Javi, i saw 6 knockbacks X 4 Stuns. 
 And 2 stuns in a roll, in decisive moment of fight. I wa more than just, no?
 | 
| correct me if i am wrong, but knockback/stun is not based on the number in the stack. So it does not matter that is 14 orgres and 65 guardians. 
 looks like AI got it lucky
 | 
| yes knockback is a triggering ability
 | 
| it can. It's already proven in your combat. Do you believe if i say 1 ogre can knock my efk back? You should believe. | 
| Chance for ability to trigger 
 If attHP >= tarHP
 Probability = 25% + 3% * (attHP/tarHP)
 else
 Probability = 25% - 3% * (tarHP/attHP)
 
 the first knock you mentioned, it had 19%+ chance, then the 2nd had higher, so its possible, and in a sense, it does base on number in a stack
 | 
| oh wait, just saw your fight and it was 18 ogres, so the chances were higher and the probability is within 5%-75%, so its possible for 1 ogre to knock large efk stack
 | 
| The chance for ability to trigger 
 If attHP >= tarHP, then
 Probability = 25% + 3% * (attHP/tarHP);
 else
 Probability = 25% - 3% * (tarHP/attHP),
 
 Where:
 - attHP is the total leftover HP of the stack that's using the ability;
 - tarHP is the total leftover HP of the target stack;
 - Trigger probability does not exceed the bound of [5%;75%];
 - The moments to calculate the probability differ depending on the ability type.
 -> For Stun and Knocking shot, the probability is calculated using HP's of stacks *before* the actual attack.
 
 -> For Knockback and Fear Attack, the calculation occurs *after* the attack and before target's retaliation.
 
 -> The only ability that can trigger on retaliation counterstrike is Knockback.
 
 
 Inital hit, after damage is dealt:
 18 Orges @ 50hp each, 58 guardians@ 26hp each and one at 15hp.
 Probability = 25% - 3% * (tarHP/attHP) = 25-(3*1.692)%
 = 19.97%
 So the 18 orges hada 19.97% chance to knockback you on their first hit.
 
 Second hit
 18 Orges @ 50hp each, 52 guardians @ 26hp each, one at 18hp.
 Probability = 25% - 3% * (tarHP/attHP) = 25-(3*1.5222)%
 = 20.43%
 
 3rd hit:
 18 Orges @ 50hp each, 46 guardians @ 26hp each, one at 24hp.
 Probability = 25% - 3% * (tarHP/attHP) = 25-(3*1.356)%
 = 20.93%
 It failed - 79.07% chance
 
 Just bad luck I guess..

| Tell me about it. My whole stack of Guardians didn't even get to take ONE turn in the whole ambush from start to death (!?!). And I'm talking about a huge stack of Guardians here, not some wimpy Farmers or something.
