So i had nothing to do and decided to look into the behaviour of the 3rd single player boss (the one that splits). To do this i was looking for a map with long straight lines of territories to get an easy measure point for the number of territories so i decided to use : https://www.warlight.net/Map/15831-Mouse-Snakes

After that i set up a spreadsheet to put in all the results i got from playing the game over and over (inmense loading times cause of big map) and now after 8 tries with 12 AI's on the bosses i've decided to actually share it in open with all i've got so far.

- All distances are calculated from the territory the boss was attacking from
- The 100 armies boss spawns 4 bosses with 90 armies (stage 1)
- The 90 armies boss spawns 3 bosses with 80 armies (stage 2)

I feel like the stage2 charts aren't representing the full picture since bosses can't be placed in the same territory as a other boss is already in and they never spawn on the territory you were attacking from with the boss.
This means some of the boss spawns in stage 2 were higher from the beginning since there were no free spaces closer to the original position of the boss.

Wait, so what does this show?

it's showing the amount of territories the clones from the original boss and the clones from them are away from the territory they were attacking from.

I have to note that it was on a map where they only could go 1 way since that was easier to measure for the distance they went.

after staring at it for a good 10 minutes i finally got it. its pretty interesting even though its clearly just a basic chance kinda thing

So trying to kill the boss to screw over the opposition AI is very unlikely to work, huh? Shame, that would be a fun tactic.
