The emphasis on 50% hit rates (60% is “accurate”), leads to a very swingy game. Wesnoth has many attacks in most cases, but Dwarven Thundersticks only have one (massive) shot, as well as Trolls with 2x attacks.
The game is designed around this level of luck, but I wish the game designers opted for less variance.
Still, its a good game, with well designed units handling a myriad of different roles.
