The numbers on SoM aren't scrambled at random, they are always by a whole number of percentages. i.e. if you have 20k defense, it can show up as 20200, 20800, 22400 but not 21300. If you have two to compare, you can then usually calculate which is the right value. If you have CB and SoM, you can do the same for troop amounts and derive defense that way. A number of translators do that for you, as a general rule of thumb (assuming of course your enemy has elites out) a SoM+SoM translation is more accurate than using Angels SOM translation.

 

Method 1 : Using an Additional Program - Valerarren's SOM translator

 

1)    Download it by clicking here

2)    Run the program

3)    SoM twice, noting down "Net defensive points at home" on each

4)    Input the values and you get a result

5)    If you get more than one result, you need additional intel in order to eliminate the wrong options

 

Method 2 : Using an External Website/ Warbots

Link: http://alliancerankings.com/som.php

1)    CB Generally not needed unless target province has 0 elites

2)    Take a SOM with 8 thieves and enter into top format field, and click Read SOM #1

3)    Take a second SOM with also 8 thieves, and copy into second format field and click Read SOM #2

4)    Leave settings, and click Compute

5)    The website should return the exact defence value left behind

6)    If you get more than one result, take another SOM and input it into SOM #3

7)    Do step 6 if you get no results as well, you may have to play around with different SOM figures. Always ensure that SOMs are taken in the same tick

To use a warbot, most accept the formats !som [defence figure 1] [defence figure 2] and will translate it for you
