In what context?

Finally did the signature thing.

when you hit someone that has defensive allies it shows up as troops/tanks and never shows the true losses in actual troops/turrets/tanks.

When you make and SS/PS (any server) against a target with defensive allies the losses will show up as:

Your enemy lost:
xx,xxx Troops
xx,xxx Turrets
xxx Tanks
Their defence allies lost:
xx,xxx Troops
xxx Tanks

It will never show lost turrets, and Im not sure the troops/tanks lost are correct, but I assume they are.

Your enemy lost:
11,320 Troops
46,047 Turrets
1273 Tanks
Their defence allies lost:
333 Troops
544 Tanks

see this would suggest their allies contribute near nothing to the actual defense but yet if you send even 20% less of the 2x break it will fail suggesting they have 4 allies instead with equal units.

It saddens me that well into the new alliance set where bots now D ally with each other this attack report bug is still there.
Would be a fun little added strategic bump if we could view that report with the correct Defensive Ally's losses.

I know right you can't properly guess what their allies are actually giving, I've gone from 220% of the base break and broke and see their allies lose next to nothing, then assume they are getting squatfrom their allies and send 190% and get a DH! then on another country I see their allies lose quite alot and send 150-175% of base break and not fail it makes no sense.

I have not done any checking on it but I always assumed that you are getting the correct losses of troops and tanks and that the turrets are just missing. so if the target has two def allies with only turrets and jets ally losses will show as empty. Theres just a line missing. I could be wrong.

Marshal having an account seems to be causing alot of bugs in the game so maybe the fix is to fix his code.

Yeah you saw ally losses but you didn't see TURRETS listed in the losses did you? sheesh

Like this:
Their defence allies lost:
34,344 Troops
132 Tanks

Next thing you'll "think" is that the bots defensive allies don't have turrets

Sorry to have to say this qzjul but enabling the bots to DA with each other mid-set and then following that up by increasing the DPA targets for the bots mid-set while allowing this bug, an attack result defensive allies turret losses display bug, to continue after eight years of reporting it on this B & S forum is just a fluff move.
