Blauk,
Yes when a squad starts to consistently hit its high end of its committment number we do start to nudge them to up the committment level. However, basically committment levels are set for each squad ops and not frames.
Also at times I will up their committment level based on how many they field in the last squad ops (V1 Hunters).
For instance:
LLv32 Frame 1 = 6
LLv32 Frame 2 = 7
LLv32 Frame 3 = 8
Average = 7
So I expect 6-8 out of them for this frame based on their past turnouts. They turned out 3 .. which caught me be suprise but was do to the fact I was sending to the wrong contact email address. So their C.O. only had like 2 days to work to turn out his troops.
Even if they had turned out Axis would have had about 30. So it would have been 42 to 30.
For an example of the opposite lets take a look at 332nd Viking from V1 Hunters:
LLv32 Frame 1 = 9
LLv32 Frame 2 = 5
LLv32 Frame 3 = 10
Average = 8
332nd was within its range (7-10 +2) and fielded 12 for this frame. But as you can see from V1 hunters they had a range of 5-10. I expected 8-9 and they had a very good turnout of 2 over their peak in last squads ops and 2 more than I really expected.
All of this is within the allowed range for the squads. Basically what happened is that the allied squads moved from the middle of their range for this frame to the high end of their range and into the +2 area. While the Axis squads stayed on the high end but did not move into the +2 column.
So we need to make some adjustments to compensate for squads really turning out for the RAF in droves while the LW has strong turnout out but not to the extent the RAF had.
However, I have to be careful or we could have the opposite with the RAF low numbers and the LW high numbers. Right now if I switch a squad that turned out 8 ot LW and LLv32 say fields 6 that will give the LW an addition 9 which should put them at 34 while bringing the RAF down to 36. Even if LLv32 turns out say 8 that should be 36 to 36.
That is if the RAF continues to turn out the strong numbers that it did and the LW squads turn out high numbers but not into the +2 range.
It all really boils down to the C.O.s turning out their troops. Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. But the next frame we could see a +10 advantage the LW if everything breaks their way. Switching a squad will hopfully balance things out more so that we don't see 25 vs 42. But we could still see a 6-10 plane discrepancy between sides instead of 17 plane discrepancy.
