I agree, I use scouts on level 10 hits daily, they almost always never all die. But listen, we are deciphering the combat mechanics to this game, bit by bit... I assure you scouts and cavalry are the only 2 units we have not came to a concrete solution for...Evocalc doesnt either, thats their main mess up...what most people dont know is walls have endurance, and that endurance adds protection or defence to the troops inside as well...the endurance resets every tick...we have tested this with identical heros (yes 100% identical)attacking a friendly account with the same number of warriors over and over where some win in 74 rounds, some lose. Also we are beginning to believe not only does The attribute of your hero affect the battle, but so does his level...as well as your honor(we believe honor acts like experience for your troops themselves, giving minor combat bonuses when you have soldiers who last several battles, but since all troops are treated the same the honor system is what diversifies this...so when your REALLY experienced troops die, you lose them and dont heal as much therefore losing honor)...we have figured out EXACT mechanics for all defensive units as well as exact mechanics for melee troops and ranged units...the calculator our programmer has made is already 100% accurate when cavs or scouts are not involved. Lets leave it at this, Scouts act differently when sent alone than they do when accompanying, as well as act different depending on the troop type they are sent with...if you think I am the fool here, judge me all you want. At least I'm reaching out here and sharing my knowledge and trying to further decipher the mechanics, what are you doing? What your host or combat general tells you to...use your brain, or be a tool...your choice.

"the general who wins a battle makes many calculations in his temple here the battle is fought. The general who loses a battle makes but few calculations beforehand. Thus do many calculations lead to victory, and few calculations to defeat: how much more no calculation at all! It is by attention to this point that I can foresee who is likely to win or lose."
-Sun Tzu, the Art of War

"He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight. He will win who knows how to handle both superior and inferior forces. He will win whose army is animated by the same spirit throughout all its ranks. He will win who, prepared himself, waits to take the enemy unprepared. He will win who has military capacity and is not interfered with by the sovereign."
-Sun Tzu, the Art of War

"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle."
- Sun Tzu
