Re: Halt Heretic - Opinions
I'm loving these test results!

Re: Halt Heretic - Opinions
Yeah, that's what I said "I wave my halberd in the air, draining strength and
skill out of the enemy"... Magic. Of the worst kind. Now we know why Ulm fell. Call the inquisitors! On a more serious note, please rework the description. I do not have the game here, but I believe it said something about the guardians skill and resolve. It should speak of the weapon's properties. But the ability itself is damn nice. |

> It should speak of the weapon's properties.
It does, unless I'm mistaken. It is not a magic halberd as much as a sacred halberd created by the Priest Smiths. Fatigue is a result from the clash of divine powers. |
Re: Halt Heretic - Opinions
I just checked the description, Tuidjy.

Re: Halt Heretic - Opinions
The more I hear, the more I like it. I looked at the new changes late one night,
and decided that I was not nearly enough. It seems I was quite off. Now, if Ulm could only get some kind of decently trained soldiers. It is my recollection that most if not all of the infantry have 10s in their combat stats. |
Re: Halt Heretic - Opinions
Most of them do, yes. It's because they are regular soldiers, just very well equipped. The Guardians and the Black Knights are the only ones who have above 10 stats. Guardian has attack 12, defense 10 base and Black Knight is, well, Black Knight. The Black Plate Infantry units got morale boosted from 10 to 11 comapred to 10 for the basic Ulm infantry and the pikemen are 11 and 12 for normal and Black Plate respectively. The Full Plate of Ulm getting defense penalty slashed from -5 to -3 is also a good thing.
Combined with Black Priests able to cast Sermon of Courage, all of that put together is not insignificant at all compared to what Ulm used to be like. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif |
Re: Halt Heretic - Opinions
What really bothers me about Ulm (among many other things) is that they have the
equipment, they just do not know how to use it. 1. Give the arbalest guys a pavise (tower shield) to duck behind, and they will become the terror of the battlefield. 2. Have some of the infantry wear the arbalesters' cuiraces, give them the knights' kite shields, the pikemen's half helmets, and a simple shortsword. Can you say awesome medium infantry? 3. As for the black knights, have them go on a quest to find their daddy's broadsword, and to help them look, give them a half helmet. Now, if the damn smiths would get off their asses and actually apply their supposed skill on lightening the above MUNDANE equipment, THEN would Ulm have a claim to 'excellent equipment'. Also, I wish they would get a MASS reinvigoration spell based on Earth magic. Why isn't there one? After all Earth=reinvigoration since the days of Antaios. |
Re: Halt Heretic - Opinions
I'll reiterate my previous post. Before you speculate - do some trials. I've tried three games with the current patch. I think Ulm is now one of the strongest LA nations.

Re: Halt Heretic - Opinions
He's primarily talking about MA Ulm though.
LA Ulm always had some stuff going for it and got quite a boost with the improvements to the iron faith and ghoul guardians (which are now pretty hot units). |
Re: Halt Heretic - Opinions
no one on this thread was talking about LA Ulm. We are all talking about MA Ulm.
