Re: Humanoid Pretenders are too expensive

First of all, I assume you're talking about the size-2 humanoids (crone etc.) and archmage on a horse, not the giant humanoids like Son of Niefel, Titans etc. (which I think are mostly fine, I...

Re: Iron Faith: Comments and Suggestions

I concur with the Templar Commander suggestion.

Instead of a "Black Grandmaster" unit, though, why not an Iron Patriarch national hero specific to the Iron Faith theme (perhaps the founder of the...

Re: Ermythiumephale overpowered? Tell us what you think!

When I looked at the results, Ermor was in the lead in both categories (most likely to win *and* most likely to be eliminated first). http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

Re: scripts during assassinations

I don't think that's why bodyguards can't fire. It's trivially easy to make assassins resistant to normal missiles, so only Illithids would be "too effective" bodyguards - but Illithids cost 50 gold...

Some questions on assassination

If a commander is injured in an assassination attempt and there is a battle the same turn, is he still injured when the battle starts?

If a commander is fatigued in an assassination attempt, does...

Re: Why no Water 3 Pretenders?

The Son of Niefel is only Water-2 but he also costs only 50 points, while most gods of his physical might cost over 100.

Re: Vampire Queen mod

Re: Thinking about supply - some proposals

At least one faction *does* have a supply unit: the Fay Boar. Nature mages provide supply, as do some Gods (the Great White Bull and Lord of Fertility are the only ones I can think of).
