Default Re: Blood Red (closed - setting up)

I'm inclined to down-power them myself. I just won a fight in Dramatica I probably shouldn't have (although I did get pretty damn lucky even so).

Vanilla Jade Maidens (and all the other amazon sacreds) are pretty lightly armoured, which may be why they aren't often used in preference to nationals. In Dramatica, there's the added problem that they have more prot than they were intended to, which doesn't help things at all.

Other than sacreds, Themiskyra isn't really great at melee (str 9 and spears - even with decent armour and defence, the basic units just don't seem to get anywhere against armoured troops) and so there might be an argument for having a sacred available anywhere. For this game though, I'd rather see how it went with cap-only sacreds.

The attached mod is a significant update:

- sacreds have a higher resource cost and Jade Maiden prices have been bumped to 60.
- armour is toned down a lot.
- sacreds are cap only.

This should change things noticeably, I hope.
