MOST USED IN LAST 12 MTHS (DBM 3.1)
Games Played & Armies Used
Most Used Armies in Last 12 Months (DBM 3.1 only) - at 13 October 2007 (post Migscon)
The table below summarises the usage and results of each army in rated
tournaments (where army details were supplied) over the last year.
It is in order of extent of usage (where tied it is in book then list number order).
Only armies that have been used in the last year are included. There are 130 such armies.
The one year period includes all rated tournaments after Norbert Gisclair 06.
The total number of games used (all competitions)
in the last year is shown and the average 10 point score in those games.
The number of games and average scores are shown on the right
split into usage by Higher Rated players (ie current rating above 2,100),
Average players (rated 1,900 to 2,100) and Lower Rated players (currently rated below 1,900).
The middle columns show the percentage of games "won", "drawn" and
"lost" for each army. Where the scoring system used, eg GSC15, allows this to be determined precisely that information has been used.
Under other scoring systems it is based upon the equivalent of a 10 point score from each game where a score of 6.5 to 10
is considered a win, 3.5 to 6.5 a draw and 0 to 3.5 a loss. In these cases the available data does not
permit any more accurate determination of wins, draws and losses than this.
The number in brackets is the army's rank on the overall usage table. This helps to highlight
trends in usage for each army.
