I caught an error when play testing today. The Epic hero for arcos. has a grand elephant dominion summon, that summons a tough elephant. Despite giving them an elephants hps, they only have a size of 2.

So they do not trample, but they have 2 attacks, and are tough nonetheless. Regardless, we will just have to tough it out this game. Unsure whether this helps or hurts arcos, but it is an error, and the next version will have them as siza 6.

The game hasn't started yet, so there is still time to fix it. Actually as long as the eversion name is the exact same we could upload a new version in the middle of the game, and everything will work. (as long as we all update the mod.)

If we're fixing stuff, could Li Bo lose the earth magic, 2 of the nature, and get +1 to the rest of his paths?

Default Re: map problem

if he loses the 2e and 2n, i may give him his wings back, as he could not do rain of stones. let me look at him.

i made a few other changes to descr. of various heroes, and fixed some minor issues, but i have not kept a record of the changes. There have been no major changes though.

Apparently you cannot fix a mod after the game has started, as it has caused some serious issues with the Alpaca game when Llama tried.

I will see about a hot fix on the server side that only changes the summoned elephants size to 6.

Good news Dr. P! In 1.4 you have your wings back and lost the 2e 2n but gained +1 in the other existing paths(2f 4a etc).

Your hero remains h3 however. your hps were also lowered to 10, a slight tweak to reflect your new air raid capabilities, and your strength was lowered from 14 to 12. in reality it should be 8 as you are a poet!

Your hero is now significantly tougher than abysia's flying immortal, so i am open to ideas how to adjust abysia's hero, or to reasons why tien chi's flying immortal should be greatly superior to abysia's flying immortal.

You can't change his magic after the game has started - I know that. Otherwise I wasn't aware that changing a mod mid-game caused problems but it wouldn't surprise me!

We are just going to live with the size 2 elephants. They are a rare dom summon, there will not be many of them, and I am not sure whether the lack of trample is a blessing or curse. likely a blessing to arcos. because the elephants in question get 2 attacks headbutt and trunk.
