the banners

2. Those banners work like a "Sermon of Courage" : it helps counteract the moral loss the troops may take. It's an effect centered on the holder. If you click on the banner you will see its "range". I have seen banners between +6 and +15. I don't know, however, if this is a radius, of if it means it affects a total of 6 to 15 squares.

I wonder if we can get IW to explain what, exactly, the effect is (both morale boost amount and range/radius, plus whether it only works to counter morale loss).

Standard = AEO. All units in area regains some of their lost morale each turn.

Does anyone know how this area is determined? (e.g. +6 = ??)

Also, does anyone know how we can see the effects of such banners and the aforementioned Banner of the North Star? I dont see the little number next to the "astral icon" under my mages increase when I click on them during a battle. Is this intentional?

(It would be GREAT if most of the effects that spells and items have would be more transparent since exact descriptions of their function are often missing, e.g. consider the Amon Hotep item, or the Ark)

If you read Zen's PDF file you'll quickly realize that the question as to whether +6 on a morale banner is a radius or a diameter is still valid, and as yet unanswered.

Arryn,

I've read Zen's PDF and understand the question is still valid. If you look at what I quoted you'll see I was responding to his request for additional information.

Sorry. I see now.

I looked at what you quoted of his post and took it in the context of the thread topic. Had I read his full posting I'd've seen his request for how other items worked.

I'm still a bit puzzled that this thread has gone on as long as it has without any of us getting the question of what +X exactly means answered with regards to morale banners.

Once again I apologize. I didn't mean to jump on you.
