Default Re: Horned helmet

Yes, it gives you one extra attack. I tested it just to make sure, and though I didn't realize this before the fatigue you incur from attacking appears to be only from one ROUND of attacks, not the number of individual attacks. While quickness might make you get multiple ROUNDS of attacks in a single turn and thus increase your fatigue/per turn, the horned helm does not.

I think horror helm is by far and away the best helm up until construction level 8 for large scale army fighting thugs. Even if you already have fear +0, it upgrades it to fear +5 which increases the radius, and obviously the strength. 5 points is a big jump for a morale check. The only possible exception to this is that the steel helm is construction level 0, which makes it cheap'n'easy to put on an undead pretender SC to clear out indies, and astral skull cap which increases MR.
