Was ist das? Tha BB with a C is part of the new rules right? I don't know how that works and cannot find it in the rules yet.

Hi Cat
Yea battle calc can you get you close but you need to tweak it sometimes. In the case of the Trprts you could replace them with Submarines as they both defend at 1 and run the calc and compare the difference.
The defender would also need a DD or Escort or the Subs defending would skew with their First Strike.
Most experienced/Top Tier players avoid large battles due to the fact they can be dicey. Especially Naval.
I generally only do it if I'm losing, the odds are heavy in my favor or if I think the result of leaving the large stack intact is even more dangerous the next turn.
Naval battles can be especially dicey.

With the large number of units in HRE, it is harder to cipher, which is what produces the variety of strategies and tactical ways to achieve them but it also gives some good ideas none the less
Edit
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/assets/uploads/files/1770916645890-38.g40-naval-commander.pdfI need to clarify the in Game Notes. You need to edit in an Active NC. It has a red C. Then it will give the bonus

@beelee thank you for that !!!

Another way to test stuff besides using the battle calc, is to switch to low luck before you fire up the save.
Then fight the battle. You have to still take the correct PE casualties and it won't give a percentage but it will give you pretty close to a average dice result.
