Chapter 158 - Chapter 157

 The 1-15-300 Rule. Any serious frontline force should be composed of one invention-level Divine, fifteen mages, and three hundred soldiers. Losses taken should follow a 0-1-100 split. Casualties inflicted by our forces typically follow a 3-6-1 split (as in, for every 3 combatants the Divine fells, the 15 mages will defeat 15 and the 300 mundane men will kill 1). The strengths of major Divines are too variable to be estimated and should be taken on a case-by-case basis.

Some Divines are amplified by their forces, others amplify their armies. Typically the latter are far less dangerous than the former. There is one exception I will specifically mention: Kassandora, Of War, is not particularly strong individually. When commanding an army, she should be avoided at all costs unless several major Divines are present.

Excerpts from Goddess Fortia, Of Peace's, War Manual: The Doctrine of Might & Magic. Written before the Great War, but edited during it.
