Just a question, is there anywhere we can check where our card penalties are from? Also another note, if possible, please make a more detailed uh, guide in the war-rules thread under penalties section so we know exactly how much are we penalized for the different penalties because I clearly do not see any -3 card penalty in the list.
Like Zeru already said, negative penalty = bonus. I had to do it that way because there is no "bonus" column in the spreadsheet.
The negative penalty is caused by the Event Card and we most likely won't be seeing it after round 1.
i think my battle by battle list worked much better clearly showed how many total cards were being gained or lost
The problem was that your battle list was not a spreadsheet, therefore it would have required manual edits.
It might seem exciting and fun at first, but after you have done that 100th manual edit, it's not that fun anymore. I don't think you fully understood what you were getting yourself into, and I know what I'm talking about because I edited the standings manually during War #1. It was a very painful process that I don't wish to even to my mortal enemy.
Spreadsheets are definitely the way to go here because they do some of the work for you.
