Weather(http://donjon.bin.sh/d20/weather/)

Tactics(roll the numbers 1-5)

1 = line(roll the numbers 1-5 for depth)
1 = 1x10 line
2 = 3x4 line
3 = 1x5 line
4 = 1x4 line
5 = 3x10 line
2 = column(roll the numbers 1-5 for width)
1 = 3x4 column
2 = 3x5 column
3 = 1x2 column
4 = 3x4 column
5 = 1x4 column
3 = rush
4 = skimirsh(at least 25% of the army slinger and archer)
5 = ambush(unable if not night)

Commanders(divide the army in parts)

note that, when you calculate the commanders, subtrate 1 soldier from each
type(lancer, swordsman, slinger, archer)

Roll the numbers(1-100)

>5 = roll the numbers again and make an arithmetic mean
ex: (4 + 7)/2 = 5.5 = 6(round up)
5 = some commander controls 5% of the army
6 = some commander controls 6% of the army
...
20 = some commander controls 20% of the army
...
100 = some commander controls 100% of the army

Roll the numbers(1-5), skill of the commander

1 = skill level 1
2 = skill level 2
3 = skill level 3
4 = skill level 4
5 = skill level 5

Number of contacts(number of soldiers in meele combat)

ex: if a column of 7 wide and 10 depth(70 soldiers) meet a line of thirteen
wide and two depth(60 soldiers), the contact is 7 soldiers
 if a line of thirteen wide and three depth(90 soldiers) meet another
line of thirten wide and three depth, the contact is thirteen

contacting soldiers = those who are in hand-to-hand combat(meele)

Roll the numbers(0-100) simultaneously to Roll

the numbers(0-100)
1 = 1% of the (side 1) contacting soldiers die
1 = 1% of the (side 2) contacting soldiers die
30 = 30% of the (side 1) contacting soldiers die
30 = 30% of the (side 2) contacting soldiers die
100 = 100% of the (side 1) contacting soldiers die
100 = 100% of the (side 2) contacting soldiers die

Use of range units in combat

Roll the numbers(0-30)

simultaneously to Roll the numbers(0-30)
0 = 0% of the (side 2) range units killed someone
0 = 0% of the (side 1) range units killed someone
15 = 15% of the (side 2) range units killed someone
15 = 15% of the (side 1) range units killed someone
30 = 30% of the (side 2) range units killed someone
30 = 30% of the (side 1) range units killed someone
