Default Re: What is your nastiest surprise ever in Dom III?

Last evening.

Five skilled Abysia Fire Mages (lvl 3 to 5) sieging a Tien C'hi Fortress.

All stacked just behind my massive troops to cast again and again Falling Fire (or Fireball, Conflagration, whatever doing big amount of damage to lots of units at one time), and well protected by 5 Lava Warriors each (just in case).

Tien C'hi army was slaughtered, routed, just ONE unit left on the battlefield, running for his life ...

My lazy mages, having nothing more interresting to do, have all cast Phoenix Pyre at this time.

You guess :
one of them was killed by a tower's arrow, and ...

BOOM -> BOOM -> BOOM !!!

3 deads, the two lucky survivors crippled, and 2/3 of bodyguards destroyed.

I have to replay three times the battle to undestands what happened.

I was angry, but then, I think of this thread (and this one too), and laught a lot !
