doesnt bounty depend on what type of units you kill? not soley on the value u kill.

so if u slaughter 100bill worth of INN's is no where near reward ful as kill 100bill worth of LET's

Could be many reasons- perhaps there were people in front of you or on the same tick with other troops (even if it's just flak), this will always significantly reduce bounty. If the person got defence and you killed those troops, then you don't get any bounty from those. Also as Matt said, if it was mostly innocents/NLT etc. that you killed you get significantly reduced bounty.

Edit: Also, if you didn't send Geos/Wheelies then you don't get full bounty either.

Yeah iirc alot of things affect the level of bounty you'll get...type of troops sent (i.e pure LET etc), other attackers before/after you, repeat attacks, what you kill (INN/NLD net alot less bounty than pure LET, if you kill defenders you dont get bounty on them

Are you sure it you didnt send on them before and forgot? Or was there defenders there?

my only correction would be that you should get insurance when defending (only) and bounty when attacking (only). Not a combination of both.

why?
That's like 2% bounty...seems about right to me...?

the fact you can profit by bounty alone when attacking at 30%. But then again, i guess its not alot....

However, when you consider that BR, it does seem a little unfair to me...

[edit]i guess i should mention i wasnt implying that there is a bug or something, i was just saying it was unfair

No, i know you didnt mean a bug. And i can see where your coming from, but i think 2% isnt unfair. Its just cos he did a crazy amount of damage without taking any losses (basically) that he can make a profit.

I know you can make a profit attacking very low (as i believe f0xx showed last round) but its harder to do successfully for most people.
I wouldnt be against having no bounty when attacking at 30%, but i dont think 2% could be considered unfair.
