A strategic planning tool exists that computes the combined strength of units in a simulated combat environment. This calculation assists in determining the overall offensive or defensive capabilities of a force prior to engagement. As an example, this tool might factor in the attack power, defense, and health points of various unit types to produce a single, aggregate value representing the entire fighting force.
The primary benefit of such a calculation lies in its capacity to inform tactical decision-making. It provides a quantifiable assessment, aiding in resource allocation, risk assessment, and strategic deployment of forces. Historically, military leaders have sought methods to quantify relative strengths; this type of computational aid represents a modern evolution of that quest, enabling more precise estimations than traditional methods alone.
