NPC battles

[eowiel]

Hi , I'm new to this game so sorry if this is a stupid question.(tried to search an answer in the forumsbut I didn't find one)

When I join a fight of two war parties then I only get about 7 allies (while there should be about 30) and the enemy gets alot more. (don't know if they get all the troops that are listed in the screens before the battle starts)

Is there a way to make it so that I have more allies or not?

Thanks

Hmm, that might be because your battle slider is too low.

But could you elaborate on the situation? Generally when you join a battle, you come in with a mix of your own soldiers and allied soldiers.

The Battle size slider located in your options screen (ESC key) controls the maximum amount of fighters for each side.
The furthest left is 5 fighters per side, the furthest right is 15 (Estimate)

Therefor if you have 5 Troops and your allie has 5 That is a total of Ten troops that can enter the battle IF the battle size permits. If you have 5, your allie has 5 but the enemy has 20. And the battle size is at max, the combat rounds will be as so
You+Allie = 10 Fighters
Enemies = 15 Fighters

Also check the party screen and see the troop numbers, check for something like this
(5/11)
That means 5 out of ten of that troop type are ready for combat while 6 are not and need more time to rest before being able to enter a fight.

Raising your tactics skill will tip the balance of trooop numbers in your favour
