But the continued misrepresentation of what I said by Gandalf's fanboys leaves me no choice. Please note that I did not say "all his posts" are "worthless." I endeavor to be precise in my language, even on game forums. What I did say instead is that Gandalf's posts are "worthless" when it comes to "threads of this nature": that is, threads where national or unit imbalances or comparisons are discussed. Again, as a long-time lurker, I appreciate that Gandalf has made many invaluable contributions to this community, and I have even learned much from some of his posts. Moreover, he seems to be one of the nicer guys on this forum: witness the equanimity with which he takes some of these sharp criticisms in stride. Nonetheless, all that cannot immunize you from criticism if you say something utterly devoid of persuasive force. |
Re: Will Vanheim Ever Become Spayed?
Your position is fine. And Im not very good at specific comparions where people break it down into specific numbers.
I only wade in when a thread starts to paint such a bleak picture that it might scare off newbies reading here, or worse someone who has yet to purchase the game. I think its misleading to call such catastrophic results when it affects only a portion of the player base. In this case it appears to be MP on small blitz maps with no victory conditions. |

1) N2 Ench (let's say 2): "Arrows to poisoned salted pork chops"? Affects all friendly troops. All fired missiles become poisoned salted pork chops and deal no damage. If eaten considered a weak poison. 2) Another Ench-2: "Hunger" (battlefield), AOE, "all affected units suddenly becomes hungry". |
Re: Will Vanheim Ever Become Spayed?
Increasing Vanir price will probably do the trick by making them harder to amass from the start. I still prefer the thematic repurcussions of taking away their sacred, but I can understand if that doesn't change.
The question is, do you increase gold cost, resources cost, or both? =$= |
Re: Will Vanheim Ever Become Spayed?
Im not sure if Kristoffer just raises resource costs. I think he has kindof a formula for that based on the armor and weapons. So probably gold is the thing that can be most flexible.

Re: Will Vanheim Ever Become Spayed?
My solution would cost some coding time:
Gold/Resources don't change, but each sacred glamour unit costs 1 additional Air Gem to build up. You've something to invest at the start and can't build up as much units. Later you can spend your air gems for a bigger sacred glamour army. That would give Vanheim/Helheim something special and if you don't play a bless tactic you can use your other non-sacred glamour units (without gem costs). 2-3 Air gems/turn should be provided to vanheim/helheim in each era. |
Re: Will Vanheim Ever Become Spayed?
It seems that mounted Vans don't have the barding resource cost that most mounted units have. Helhirdings are lightly armored, protection 11. It's kind of strange that units that do have barding receive no benefit from it.
