This doesn't bother me so much, since I doubt I would use them at the price even if they were... cheap stealthy wardens are clearly better assuming you don't need strat move 3.

The second thing does surprise me and I'd like to ask why it was done.... man MA longbows only have range 35 now, which makes any old composite bow (even in EA) superior.

EDIT: Thanks fungalreason and cleveland, I'll look into those for next version.

This is bizarre and arguably some sort of dominions sacrilege, and especially unexpected as the resource cost was bumped up.

It's true than man's longbows were best in game, but they haven't much else going for them, and there doesn't seem to be a way to maintain an advantage (i.e dispel storm or arrow fend), so its hardly unbalancing.

Anyway just wanted to get that off my chest... now I have to go back to designing an MA man pretender for Dodeicus, that won't be a total pushover.

Send me a PM if you have any ideas.

Knights of Avalon were never sacred... I leave such thematic decisions to KO.

The longbow thing was a change I thought I rolled back, I guess it's still in there somewhere.

EDIT: Thanks fungalreason and cleveland, I'll look into those next version.
