Seeking clarity.

OK, I am cutting and pasting here, to keep things in
order.

in place of lost casualties.

OK, to be more concrete.
I have 25 units in a fortress with a Barracks Space of
10 units. Each unit is worth 10/1, and the bonus is
+100% and +1 HP.

Round One: for my attack I have 15 units that attack
normally (15 units x10 points), and 10 in the front
rank that get the bonus (10 units x 20 = 200) = 350
attack points.
I get hit for 22 damage. I lose all 10 units in the
front rank = 20 HP, and two others from the second
rank = 22 HP.

I’ve lost everyone in the front ranks now, but
casualties are not removed.

Round 2:
DO THOSE TEN “DEAD” GUYS GET THE BONUS THIS ROUND?

If they do not, do ten more guys get the bonus
instead?
I think NO, not this round.

Miraculously, for the sake of this example, I lose no
defenders this round.

Next Round.
I have 13 defenders.
DO TEN NEW GUYS GET THE BONUS?
I think Yes.
