Yes, that makes sense. The enemy troops were precursors.

If there were 12 combat units there and a score of 180, that could imply that their strength was 15 (12*15=180). I don't know if the calculation takes into account the level of Ground Strength researched by the faction.

Thanks for the answer. However I began bombarding the planet with missiles and railguns(atmospheric pressure was only 0.08) and counted up 12 destroyed enemy ground units. Maybe Steve can clarify what that number means.

I belive, and I stress the "believe" part, that Aurora assignes a combat strength of 10 to every enemy battalion, i.e. a combat strength 180 means, there are about 18 battalions on the ground.

It does _not_ tell you anything about the true combat power of those battalions.

I, too, would like to know the answer to this question.

I mean how can i deduce the number of enemy batallions present on that planet. Is that the attack/defense rating added up together?

A quick question. Did not found it anywhere on the forum. What means estimated combat strength? For instance i have active sensor contact with some enemy ground units with combat strength of 180.
