CRT Combat Model

[Bill Macon]

Thanks, I saw this and wasn't encouraged.  The form syntax allows 
if/else/end-if statements, but it's not clear if you could put these in a 
table somehow.  I suggested this as a way to simulate a CRT; tedious, but 
perhaps possible if the syntax works.  Is there a code syntax expert in the 
house that can answer this?  For those of us interested in using xconq to 
recreate old Avalon Hill boardgames and the like, this is a real problem.  
I'm very impressed with what xconq offers, but this is one obstacle to 
wargame development that's difficult to work around.  I would also like to 
see relative attacker/defender strength based on hit-points worked in, but 
that looks even tougher to work out.
