Re: Stealth and search?

Thanks all. Not a big deal in my current game, but one brief "scare" prompted the question.

Stealth and search?

Is he stealthed while he searching? Will he fight an enemy who attacks...

Best summoned leaders?

I'm curious - which summoned leaders do you consider to be the best? Feel free to take "best" to mean "roxx0rz the most" or "these guys are a great deal".

I know that a lot of this depends on...

Re: Magic For Dummies?

This really depends on nation. The only rule that I've found over all nations is "when in doubt, research". By the time you reach the part of the game where that rule breaks down, you know why you...

Re: Need ULM\'s opposite. :-)

Thanks all. Shinu looks like what I'm asking for - very, very different from ULM.

On a tangent, the reason I don't like the water races is not due to the individuals, but flavor and game-flow. ...

Re: Is black plate worth it?

I just noticed something. There's an alt-6 spell called "Iron Bane" that destroys all armor on the battlefield except magic armor. Is black plate "magic"? This would be a dang handy spell if so.

Re: Blood FAQ?

I'm not explaining this well. During the fight, yes, they are there.

But next turn I now have a bunch of blood slaves in the army setup screen. I can't turn'em back into gems. :-)

Re: Blood FAQ?

Blood FAQ?

In my current (SP) game I too the freak lord as my pretender w/ulm just so I could play with blood a bit. The only real thoughts behind it were a) get earth stones, and b) see what cool summons I...

Re: Ulm - what items do you build w/Smiths?

Bob - seriously, no need to keep ranting. You made a point, many didn't believe you. Play the follow-on games, see what happens, have fun. But no need to troll here.

Ulm - what items do you build w/Smiths?

I'm curious - what items do you find worthwhile to build with your smiths? Earth boots obviously, but after that, what else do you like?

Note, I'm not dissing the smiths. I'm curious what others...

Re: Why Kailasa, Bandar Log, and Patala NEVER WIN

Re: Why Kailasa, Bandar Log, and Patala NEVER WIN

One thought. If you start a game on a 2-space map - one space ulm, one space bander log - then bander log probably loses unless I'm missing something. But make it a 2 person game with 500 areas,...

Thanks for the thoughts all.

My major issue with the AI isn't that it took bad scales, but that it took all of them, and heavy.

In all honesty, to improve the AI the devs should just program in...

Originally I said:

Re: Is black plate worth it?

I would say that if gold is your issue, then you aren't balancing our check book well. You have a maintenance cost, so once you get an army big enough for your purposes, all you do is maintain it.

Re: Is black plate worth it?

We agree that you don't toss in infantry by themselves. But if ulm's plate can't stand up to a hoplite mano-a-mano then why pay the extra resources for a plate? Just go with chain.
