Encounter and XP design using Lanchester's laws

For the latest version with inline equations and images, read this article on my wiki.

Lanchester's laws are simple formulas for modeling the effects of the size of a fighting force and the interplay of quality and quantity. When combined with a few other straightforward assumptions, they can be used to derive an additive encounter difficulty and XP system.

We'll use Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition as our primary example, but these concepts are not tied to any specific game.

Lanchester's linear law

We'll start with a brief review of Lanchester's laws. If this is your first time encountering Lanchester's laws, you may want to start with some of the more detailed treatments listed in the footnotes.^1

There are two basic Lanchester's laws. The first is the linear law, which applies in situations where a greater quantity of units does not allow a greater amount of firepower to be brought to bear, but overall survivability is proportional to quantity; or alternatively, where firepower is proportional to quantity but survivability does not scale up with quantity. Here are examples of where the linear law applies:

  • The combat consists of a sequence of 1v1 duels.
  • A chokepoint only allows a fixed number of units of each side to fight at a time.
  • The frontline only allows an equal number of units on each side to fight at a time.
  • Attacks are unaimed, with their chance of hitting being proportional to the number of opponents.
  • Area of effects are so large that attacks hit all opponents, meaning that a greater number does not result in greater survivability for that side.

Let's say one side is the player's party and the other side is their enemies. Both sides' units are identical, with the enemies having a fraction c \leq 1 of the party's units. Then, under the linear law the party will end the battle with a fraction 1 - c of their starting units by the time they wipe out the enemies.

Lanchester's square law

The other basic law is the square law. This applies to situations where both available firepower and survivability scale proportionally to quantity. Ranged combat is often closer to this case, when any unit is capable of attacking any other unit.

If attrition of firepower from damage taken is continuous for both sides, under the square law the party will end the battle with a fraction `\sqrt{1 -

The Wall by John Lanchester

Just finished this book today and oh my god, easily one of the best books I've read for a good while. Cannot recommend this book enough for fans of dystopian science fiction. Although calling it science fiction seems somewhat inaccurate, basically everything Lanchester writes about seems well within the realms of possibility. If your looking for an Orwellian esque fix than this is the book for you.
