Rounds VS Damage???

wac77 (Mostly Harmless) posted this on Monday, 13th June 2005, 22:43

Can Someone explain the logic of this to me??
2 Grems go at it for 20 rounds
1st Grem does Over 1000 points of damage bringing grem 2 very close to knock out
2nd Grem does only 100 points of damage barely scratching Grem 1
BUT because Grem 2 hit in more rounds than Grem 1, Grem 2 gets the win

WHERE IS THE LOGIC???

I undestand HOW it works (Grem 2 won more rounds) I want to know WHY?
If Grem 1 kicked the Crap out of Grem 2 on points bringing him close to KO (and to me that is what winning a fight is about who kicked whos Butt!! NOT who hit who how many times)
HOW and WHY should Grem 2 win when he barely damaged Grem 1 at all???

Answer, it is a game and those are the rules. If the rules change then the tactics and the balance of strength/stamina/dexterity would change.

And what`s the difference between what happens here and in real life boxing?

NONE

The winner of a round in real boxing will be the boxer who lands the most clean punches, not someone who lands a couple of heavy punches but can`t knock his opponent out.

That`s exactly what happens here.

Thanks I understand the logic as you put it.
It is just a lil frustrating when I do 1500 point of damage to someone and they do less than 100 to me and they win the match. Just doesn`t seem right.
Oh well thems be da rules

I`m probably one of those guys. I prefer the long fights as you get more points.

Also I`ve noticed recently that the hard hitters are doing huge damage beyond their effective range.
