Okay, taking into account blast markers, correct mathematics and the
splitting of FP between a detachment, the upshot is:
Warhounds shoot first - Around 70% likely that there will be one badly
damaged and possibly dead revenant (keep another detachment nearby to
shoot at it once and kill it if it still lives). If the revenant dies,
the second revenant will be crippled next turn at the loss of no
warhounds. If the revenant survives, both will fire back and severely
damage a warhound with a 50% chance of killing it before the crippled
revenant is destroyed. The final revenant would probably be able to
take down the badly damaged warhound before it kicks off.
~70% chance: 1 undamaged warhound, 1 slightly damaged warhound, 2 dead
revenants
~30% chance: 1 undamaged warhound, 1 dead warhound, 2 dead revenants
Revenants shoot first - Around 50% likely that there will be one dead
warhound, it will definitely be badly damaged. If it survives, the
warhounds should be able to badly damage a revenant and kill it off
before they are both destroyed. If the initial shooting kills a
warhound, the revenants will 50% likely survive with only one being
badly damaged.
~50% chance: 1 undamaged revenant, 1 dead revenant, 2 dead warhounds
~25% chance: 1 undamaged revenant, 1 badly damaged revenant, 2 dead
warhounds
~25% chance: 2 undamaged revenants, 2 dead warhounds
[------->] All in all, nice job. I guess you showed why warhounds cost
more than Revenants. Basic conclusion being that Revenants are better
armed, but Warhounds are more survivable.
They both roll the same number of dice(vs troops/vehicals in the open). For
warhounds you have
24 fp or 12 dice, while Revenants have 8 fp-->4 dice and 8 AT shots.
Basicly, if 2 revenants firing at 2 warhounds would do more damage than 2
warhounds firing at 2 warhounds, but the warhounds have a better chance of
surviving the return fire. Stupid eldar, isn't that always the way...they
can dish it out, but they can't take it.
