But it says that armor adds encumberance to combat in the description? Has that been changed?

As he said, a "quirk".

No change though. It's worked this way at least back to Dom2.

Armor adds to combat encumbrance for anyone with a base encumbrance above 0. It adds to spell casting encumbrance for everyone, so don't load your self-buffing Tartarian down too heavily.

And it also decreases AP, so if you throw the Monolith Armor on a Wraith Lord just because he's 0-enc don't expect him to move very fast.

(I believe the reason almost everybody knows about 0-enc units not being affected by armor enc is because it's one of the between-turn "Helpful tips.")

Re: HINNOM EATS EVERYTHING
 

Great guide. Reading through the initial posting, Baals get described as "top-flight" SC's, but I really wonder. Primary issue is encumbrance, but I suppose you could overcome that with reinvig spells or items. Morale, on the other hand, seems like a real issue at a measley 16. Seems like they'll break more often than not if they're not ultra-quick in taking out the small armies they're facing... What do people find? Never played them post-nerf, so can't rightly say.
