So if you're going to come tell us how your game works, make sure you actually know what you're talking about first.
I spoke from personal experience. I don't think I've had any troop losses when attacking valleys/npcs since my BP days, with the exception of a couple 8-10 valleys. I've gotten all the medals I've ever needed, usually with at least a 20% drop rate (though npcs tend to drop about 50% of the time).

If it worked for me, I'm very sure, good fortune willing, it would work for everyone else.
