Re: Ulm Beginner Strategy - need help

Those are SCs? I was thinking more along the lines of the Wyrm when I was talking SCs.

Re: Ulm beefed up ...

Having a better resistance to all things magical to me fits in far better with the Ulmish theme. Rather than giving them more magic to fit with other Groups balancewise (which is a reasonable change...

Re: Ulm Beginner Strategy - need help

With Ulm, it really is all about getting an explosive start, which might include taking out a weak nation to get a second capital. Ulm does not necessarily have to win early to win, but it must get...

Re: Another noob question - What does Unholy do?

O.K., that's how I got mine. Summoned the mound king, which has unholy 3, and was just hoping it would do a little more (of course it has its other strengths besides just the unholy 3). Makes sense...

Another noob question - What does Unholy do?

Okay, I've done a quick look through the manual, a search of this site, and a look at Liga's addendum. Could someone please confirm that the only thing unholy priest powers does it allow reanimation...

Re: Dammit

Your wording is fine, and I understand your reasoning. You've basically said that there is a compelling reason for the system to be a bit unintuitive and goofy, which I can generally accept, so long...

Re: Dammit

Whether something is stupid or not if you know the game rules is complete aside from my point. The point is that as human beings, we have basic expectations as to how certain things should work. We...

Re: Dammit

Because unless you have a good reason for making something the opposite of what is intuitive and normal, you are creating a barrier for entry to new players that doesn't need to be there.

Re: Dammit

I just assumed it was pretty clear. Here's an example. If I am a badass and all powerful SC alone against a large enemy army, I will often slaughter everything on the field. If I am a badass and...

Re: Dammit

Yeah, but that's no excuse not to review and potentially change the routing system, which I also believe is very goofy and non-intuitive.

Which nations have units that can instill uprising

I know Ulm's spies can do it. I've checked the units faq available on Sunray, and have also done a quick search here with no luck. Is there a quick list of nations that have stealth units that can...

Re: How is cheating possible?

Beautiful. This is just the way to draw more people into a game that is hard to easily get into but needs more blood to keep the games fresh.

Yes, I'm sure that people cheating, or even power...

Mauled by my own lesser horror

Man I wish the spells gave better descriptions of exactly what they do.

I just cast lesser horror, when I actually had a decent army in the area. Of course it immediately killed my expensive...

Re: OberFuhrer, the Hobourg Special Hero!!!

I just swallowed really hard and resisted my natural tendency to want to post and kick someone's ***.

Instead I ask for a lock down on this thread. It has reached a point of stupidity (I won't...

Re: OberFuhrer, the Hobourg Special Hero!!!

Look, oberfuhrer itself is an actual German word for an army rank, meaning something akin to a senior colonel in the U.S. army. It has nothing to do with Hitler or anything else, other than the base...

Stupid noob question re: magic shields and the other hand

Okay, I did a quick search for this, but didn't find an answer.

Let's say there is a unit that comes with a semi-decent weapon (e.g. bane blade). I create a magic shield, give it to him. No...

Any way to get interpretation as to what happened in a battle?

Okay, so I'm taking some advice (see the "Help, I suck at Ulm" thread) and playing single player, trying to figure out combinations and strategies for Ulm. It's not going so well, at least in part...

Re: Help, I suck with Ulm!

All very useful advice. I guess my general problem is that black plate is supposed to be the strength of Ulm, yet it seems to not really have that much of an advantage against other factions' normal...
