Example

Worked example: Troop Formation Calculator

Inputs

  • March capacity: 100,001 march capacity
  • Infantry, Lancers, Marksmen: 50 / 20 / 30 Infantry, Lancers, Marksmen
  • Troop stock and reserve: 50,001 / 20,000 / 30,000 troops when stock is sufficient

Results

  • Result: The integer split fills 100,001 spaces exactly when each troop stock is sufficient.
  • Enter values from the current game screen before using the result for a spend decision.
  • Unverified values remain visible inputs instead of being copied from another system.

How it works

How this planner works

Select the progression inputs and enter the values shown in the game. The result keeps costs, time, inventory, gates, and event points separate.

When a current table is not verified, the planner asks for the value instead of copying a neighboring system.

What this uses

  • Values that are not covered by a reviewed source remain user-entered assumptions.
  • The planner does not claim a battle result, guaranteed event score, or universal best route.

What to check

  • Some game tables still require a value copied from the current in-game screen.
  • The result is a planning aid and cannot guarantee event points or future game behavior.

FAQ

What does the Troop Formation Calculator calculate?

It totals the selected progression path, applies the stock you enter, and shows what is still missing.

What if a current game value is not in the source?

Enter the value shown in your game screen; the planner keeps it marked as an input instead of inventing a number.

What is this squad formation calculator best for?

It is best for comparing formation-related investment and planning assumptions before an event, not for simulating a full battle.

Why does the worksheet use editable rates?

Because formation planning is contextual. Frost Command leaves the assumptions visible so the page stays useful across different teams and events.

Can I use this with rally planning?

Yes. The rallies and Bear Trap guides are the best companion pages when formation choices affect live event execution.
