Default Re: Can Trample damage be dodged?

Size difference affects how much the tramplers can trample, not the damage they deal.

Trample can be avoided by defense, but the trampled creature will still take one point of damage.

Do you mean size difference change the AP cost of trampling or something like that ? Do you know the exact formula for that ?

If size difference seem to matter according to battle replays (so I was thinking it was counted for dammage), there is nothing in the manual about it - it just says that size decide *who* you can trample, but I've found nothing about other effects... so according to it minotaurs would be good against humans, doing 14AP dmg- ?

I hate that (always take 1 point of damage) rule with a burning fury. It sucks so bad when my kung-fu warrior with insane defense get's slowly trampled to death by a clumsy bull. Those attacks should never connect.

Another question: Does trample cost more fatigue than a normal attack? I had a lot of fun with a great bull, however he once got unconscious and that never happened before.

Actually I just think that barbarians are overpowered against anything but archers and high-defence units. They are underpowered against those so, it's not a big deal.

I just lost an invulnerable thug to them. The 6 or 7 barbarians charged : the first hit for 14, the second hit for 11, the last one for 12 killing the thug. Doh.
