WTF is up with this combat model? Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

I don't know about you guys, but I'd like an explaination on this fact.

I have seem regular swordmen take out veteran Knights, and I just got out of a game where my veteran Spearman was whacked off by a regular warrior, and the warrior sustained NO DAMAGE!

WTF is up with this Firaxis?

I've been a devout fan of Civ through the years, and this combat model is so crappy, I'd rather play CTP where at least the odds were proportioned correctly!

Dan, Soren... anybody, plz respond to me here, or at this email address, scourge1@home.com.

about that knight: since knight defense is 3, and swordmen attack is 3, it is rely not suprising to this think to happen.

Also about that warrior, I think it is OK, if it is not happenig frequently.
Chaces for that, I lost all hp and he lost no HP would be:
if he attcked: 0.33^4=1,2%
still if you attck warrior: it is 6,25% (you know spearmen has attack of 1)

ummm, yeah... I know what the odds are..
I also lost 3 veteran galleys against 1 regular rival galley...
and I've lost 3 swordmen against a single archer, both were veteran... and I was attacking.
the warior incident should not even happened.
it had a 33% of winning each round, yet my spearman had a 66% chance, and more hitpoints. The only thing I can think of is that the combat mode has gone back to Civ1 days...

Question, Who wants the Hitpoints and Firepower idea back in? That prevented this kind of ****.
