AFAIK, uniques are not supposed to get heroic abilities, other units are, and troll kings get heroic abilities.
My bad...just checked the game with my troll kings and yes they do have heroic abilities.

Must have got them mixed up with my uniques.

Boo for no heroic abilities for named units from the SC peanut gallery (it's ok that you can have a thousand unnamed units with every ability in Dev's green creation, but not ok to have one named unit?).

Anyway, this thread makes me want to make unique troll kings.

Does "Flames from the Sky" count as personal kills for anyone?

does that mean you could end-run the "can't know how effective Flames was without a spy" if you paid attention to the mages XP?

I've not been in a situation where I really cared enough to pay attention, but someone more micromanagey than I might be interested in that "workaround" assuming it works.

flames from the sky gives you a report, unlike fires from afar... and it gives kills, not necessarily experience.
