I suppose most players outside the top 10,000 don't pay much attention to their ranking. I barely scrape into the top 120,000. But I was interested enough to compare my profile to other players the same rank as me (61). I was surprised at the disparity in statistics between me and some of my "neighbours."
My Mil Score is 55,937
Kills 3,048
Provinces taken 6,679
Another player also 61
Mil Score 63,317
Kills 541
Provinces taken 1,749
He has done far less than me in combat but has a higher military score.
Here's another player
Mil Score 69,291
Kills 447
Provinces taken 2,971
Same thing.
On the other hand, another player who has done far more than I have:
Mil Score 28,185
Kills 3,607
Provinces taken 21,069
(Yes, twenty-one thousand....in 37 games....that's a lot of rebellions/recaptures I presume, but they don't seem to count for much in the ranking system).
He's the busiest of all of us, yet his military score is half the size.
I gather some unit kills are worth more than others but damn, what has the guy who has only managed 447 lifetime kills been killing that is worth 9x more than the last guy?
