Default Re: Missile vs Shield

Yes, I have seen these calculations before.

Hovewer you know, I;ve started to suspect recently that maybe there is something wrong with it. I am not sure it works exactly like this in the game.


The reason for it is EA Ermor. All their legionare-type troops have tower shields. (parry 7) Undeads also never tire. So according to these calculations they should be almost invincible to missile fire. (1% chance of missile connecting).


However to my big susrprise , about 30 archers firing into mass of legianaries, killed 2-3 legionarie each turn, and they were doing it consistently for many turns.

This is way higher than one could expect based upon these formulas.


Of course, all I have is anecdotical evidence. But I have seen it hapening several times in several battles.

Perhaps someone could run some quick tests with these undead legonaries and archers. We may very well get surprising results.
