Fear

I asked this question a while back, but didn't get a definitive answer: does Cause Fear (+10) incur a harder morale check on the opponent than Cause Fear (+5)? IOW, is the parenthetical number just for AoE, or does it also affect the check? And if it does affect the check, how so?

TIA.

quote from a dev

Yes, and every full five makes the morale roll 1 more difficult. Fear 0 is area 5 no morale mod. so a critter with fear 15 has area 20 -3 fear mod. A death mage with 1 death, area 1 morale mod -1. The fear roll works like morale in battles, which means I am not entirely clear about the details, but squad size average morale etc will factor in if squad flees or not.

Thanks Pocus! Fast reply. Guess I need to go ahead and put a second Horror Helm on my Wyrm ASAP ...

Sadly you can't put duplicate items on a commander to get twice the effect. Put a black steel helmet on the other head instead. Buys you a a little more time to be scary.
