Marverni 3.08 patch stuff
 

The development log for the recent patch had this:

28th april
* Great Boar
* Great Boar of Carnutes
* Iron Boar

I figured from the sound of it that this was some much needed love for Marverni, but i see no sign of it in the actual patch. What happened?

from the progress page it looks like that came after the patch.

3.08 was April 16.

You'll have to wait for the next patch.

As I'm playing Marverni in two PBEMs, thanks for asking, Tyrant. Was wondering the same thing. *sigh*

Sorry tromper, How did you get stuck with Marverni?

Re: Marverni 3.08 patch stuff
 

I just played Marverni in a recent game and they were fine. Whats the complaint?

Re: Marverni 3.08 patch stuff
 

Those units will be available for summoning in the next patch. They are included in the game with 3.08.

To each their own. I can only speak for myself.
I find them to be one of the weakest nations out there. No national summons, Sacreds are average, most troops have no armour and are overpriced (IMHO), they have no archers and slingers just do not cut it mid-late game, or early game for that matter. I feel forced to play a certain way with Marv if I want to be successful: no powerful awake pretender, no dice.

I make no claims to be a good player, I am sure there are some experts who can rock Marv. But I still feel they are under powered.

In my SP games I've modded Eponi Knights to cost 37 gold and have a hoof attack. Combine that with CMB's updates to the Boar Warrior/Boar Lords and I think they'd be fun to play. (My goal is to mod each race until I have fun playing on Random.)

Quantums balance mod give Marverni a big boost by making Farstrike, which the druids can easily cast a extremely dangerous spell. Precision increased to 100, it now kills enemy leaders at a alarming rate, doing 20-30+ pts of damage...ouch!

Hmm, that's a big boost to LA Agartha as well.
