That test doesn't really show anything, since Chariots are part of a larger strategy. A single trample effect causes small amounts of damage to everything trampled, so it ends glamor effects. That means that the big scary "they all have glamor!" is over and they are no longer effectively immune to swords or bows.

Mr Trollman,

How about you set up a battle and run it? So far, everyone who has tried to fight a vanjarl + 25 van army has demonstrated they are overpowered. Please don't talk about your theories. Let's see some evidence. Feel free to utilize your level 2 AOE spells because I think that is quite reasonable. How about using Arcoscephale MA (Old Kingdom)? They have both elephant tramplers and chariots for you to choose, plus a wide variety of magic for your level 2 AOE's.

The pattern here has been that after people try testbeds, they come around to seeing that vans are overpowered.

I would like to see FrankTrollman do a test as well. He has an incredible grasp of how magic works in Dom3, or atleast he seems to in the nooby game where he was pwning everyone.

I think if there is a person that can find a definate magical way to counter a heim in the early part of the game, it would be FrankTrollman.
