Hello,

I made a short quiz (20 minutes is more than enough to finish it). I will make new tests later and possibly merge a few of them into one big test, but for now I'd like to hear how you guys did ;)

Please read the title screen to know what you need during the test. Good luck :)

Well got 23%. I'm not surprised, considering that not only do I rarely play on strategic 1v1 and it is my worst map, but I dont play it on 0% luck, so I have no idea how it works.

Very nice idea. I will do the quiz later to see how much I can get :)

I suggest you start teaching using the quiz as a guideline for the curriculum and give students the quiz after you have taught them the material. Just an opinion that I have.

That is the idea I have in mind Awesomeguy, using questions that put people in specific situations I force them to think about specific problems and solutions for them, thus hopefully introducing some ideas.

Only 38%. But as you said Darth Mylor, I do not usually play strategic or with those settings. You have inspired me to work on those settings and come back at a later date and better my score. Very good idea, thank you.

77/100 here.... a few questions

SPOILER FOR THOSE NOT TAKING IT YET:

Q12: Why not A?

For the other scenarios... am I answering the question, will answer A get the objective completed? or am I answering which option is the best.

Hint:

Consider empty SA, where do you want leftovers after turn 1?

Very good idea!
Got 77% :/ - would be 85% if not a misclick in #7

7 - misclicked :( seriously.. and on such an easy question :(
9 - i got it wrong - interesting idea with the correct answer - i didn't think of a scenario that should be considered to pick the correct answer..
12 - i don't agree with your answer - this time i did think of the scenario i haven't thought of in #9 and with that in mind i checked "wrong" answer - the only reason for picking your choice might be balance between odds and safety depending on the opponent..

ps: questions #12 and #13 are missing information about Kenia.

You are right, you should assume Kenya is empty. Under that assumption i stand by my answer to 12 and 13.

I got a 38%, but I know little about straight round or 75% luck. I also didn't notice a valid "X and Y" type answer.

Numbers 6 and 7 are contradictory. The right answer is a different total amount of troops in each one. Or maybe I'm reading something wrong...

What's wrong with attacking South Pole in number 9?

What's the benefit of attacking Siple first in 13?

On 12, why wouldn't you want to give yourself the highest probablilty of taking South Pole on 1st turn, doing that with 2 guarenteed attacks, 1 ~80% attack, instead of 1 guarenteed and the other 2 with a 45% chance of failing and getting the bonus...

Your're talking about the difference in 1-2 armies in extras, compared to 3 armies for the bonus.

6 and 7 do not contradict each other, think more on those :)

That might be tricky, especially if you do not play strat 1vs1, hint: think about possibilities of preserving leftovers.

13: HINT: You are never alone on the map, think about intel gathering.

Yeah I got 38% too. Thanks for making it.

Also wondering why move order is significant in number 13.

SPOILER
Z-Dog - as 6 and 7 cannot be contradictory in any sense, I assume you meant #7 and #8. hint: stop thinking of only one terr in 8. As for SP i guess only problem is no multiple answer answer. #13 - enemie's intel on your odds of having bonus I guess.

It is nice that you ask about it, because it's sth very neat:

5+3+3 attack vs 4+4+3 attack... Hint: Count expected income stream and think about where does that extra 1 go.

On question I. I chose 'You cannot objectively decide', because something something Nietzche.

Sorry, I meant 7 and 8 contradict each other. In 7, you're attacking with 5 overall. In 8, you only attack with 4

What can you learn by seeing the opponent take Argentina? The amount of armies used?

I got 69%. I like the ideas of scenario-based questions, but to me, it leaves a margin of error to what you think is "right" vs. what someone else thinks is "right".
I think background information is quite sufficient, however.

The beginning questions were easy, but its hard to click the right choice on an Apple product, and I got question 8 wrong because I pressed the wrong button.

If there are more of these quizzes (specifically selected with Medium Earth) I would like to try then out, since I am still very bad on that map.

Z-Dog, hint #2: Think about the difference in positioning in #7 and #8 and how can you execute an attack.

On question I.

I mean I chose option I. on whatever question it was ...
