The question is not about technical formula, but about "realistic" end-user cases.

- Filter the territories, that you already have conquered and that yet remain unconquered. (gonna manually tap 300-500 conquered territories in a list of 3200?)
I am documenting most of my progress in excel, where I also have calculated sth like "can I generate enough armies to instantly finish the map now". Input variables are many and include hospital upgrades, all kinds of buffs (including CW cache reward etc), and important in this thread, the remaining number of territories.
What I am observing during my super ascensions is that I am doing this kind of check basically at the more or less same number of remaining territories. So I seem to quite reliably take the same routes to all markets and hospitals.
For example, I am currently at Geopolitics and after having all markets/hosps, I now have 221 territories left to conquer. In my previous super ascension, I had 224 territories left at this point.
So assuming that everyone takes more or less the same routes to get all markets/hosps, it is still quite a list of territories to manually tick, but it is more or less static.
This would let you calculate exactly what AM/ICA/etc values are needed to complete a level
My goal in the end is that I dont have to calculate that every time, but have it as an active "do this" table. I am extending a list for myself atm like this:
087/000/00: hosps saves 150M => perfect; AC upgrade to 40B
150/100/50: hosps saves 129M => enough; AC upgrade to 100B
with the first 3 values denoting AM, IASV, MD advancements. With the compiled saves from this thread, I can now easily translate those requirements back into the needed upgrade levels of the hosps..
