Default Re: extending Epic Heroes to EA

I think you will have more fun, and get a better feel for a hero, by playing one of the races you like. Against the AI.

That way you can fully test the limits of the hero for your favorite race. I think you will find, for instance, that the Yeti is very tough. He is tougher in cold climates. What you may not have noticed is he has 2 "Yeti Claws." There are ap,
and with his high att and str, not many units can survive an attack by the Yeti. He also radiates cold, has a strong fear, strong movement, and a thick hide.

I feared the ryleh hero may be too tough, so he is lifeless to keep him from getting regen. I think he will still get hps back from his life drain attack. I do know pretenders that are lifeless gain hps with the alt 5 drain life spell. Testing will reveal if he is balanced.
