Default Re: Halt Heretic - Opinions

What about the results of the 'halt heretic' ability itself ? Sacreds are known for unusually high morale, blessing adds +2 morale (I think), and N9 bless causes berserk, which is likely to negate the awe effect.

I'm deffinitely NOT complaining that the halberds work well. But Ulm is supposed to be anti-supernatural nation, right ? So far, they have tools for:

- sacreds (black halberd, halt heretic)
- magic beings (Iron Angel - high research and path requirements)
- undead ? Nothing
- Demons ? Nothing

I appreciate that Ulm finally has unique tools that do their job well... but there's much more to supernatural than sacreds. Sacreds are a good start ;-).

undead/demons nothing? They have level 2 priests now. That is a great improvement. You do not see many demons in the MA.

I would not mind seeing the level 2 priests recruitable at all castles though. Arcos. has its level 2 priestesses that can heal available at all castles, and it is clearly a much stronger mp nation than Ulm even with the additions. If arcos does not have to choose between its astrologers and priestesses, I am not sure why Ulm has to choose among lesser commanders.
