To summarize, I would say that the gradual gains in combat odds are due to increasing probability of winning combat rounds, while the jumps are due to the hit damage changing (which has no effect except when it results in fewer hits being necessary for you, or more for your opponent).

Just got the save back - the good news is that he has retreated to the hill to heal up
, the bad news is that I won't be able to play for at least eight hours and I want to play NOW!
