Run Dom with the -ddd switch. Should have the story after sifting through the log.

Or any of several spells, particularly in the Thaumaturgy line.


Your Jarl will also retreat if there's enough hit points of other units on his side in the battle, including province defense, who are all killed.

Re: Your Top 10 Super Combatant Builds
 

The other obvious option is a fatigue kill. A bunch of Stellar Cascades could probably do a lot, if the mages involved decided to cooperate, and the same can be simulated with the lightning spells. Then there is Charm, though I don't recall the Charm-Mindless interaction off the fop of my head. Still, even with that up these things are comparatively cheap, and really quite nasty.

Re: Your Top 10 Super Combatant Builds
 

Siege Golems are actually immune to all elements and poison, so the lightning isn't a problem for them. They're reasonably resistant to fatigue spells as well with that much protection, but of course it could still eventually drop them and stellar cascades spam will kill just about anything in sufficient volume. I would actually be more afraid of something stupid like Swarm though.

Re: Your Top 10 Super Combatant Builds
 

Right. Duh. I knew about the immunities too, and somehow just spaced it. As for Swarm, I really wouldn't be surprised if that worked decently. Then there are the various immobilization spells, and of course, the banishment spells. Alternately, just hit them with Gifts from Heaven a few time, as 150 damage hits are the sort of thing that renders protection largely irrelevant.

Re: Your Top 10 Super Combatant Builds
 

disintegrate is one of those spells AI actually will cast on its own vs high size/hp units, so the standard hold x5 in the back method to defeat short ranged scripted counters won't save said low MR construct SCs.

You'll need the research and preferably plentiful national D access of course.

Re: Your Top 10 Super Combatant Builds
 

Sounds like we need another forum arena death match... where different members of the community each submit one SC to fight in one massive Arena Death match.
Good Times
