Healers

[Aezeal]

There are only a very limitited numbers of 100 healers, most are 20.

I think it's the chance to heal an affliction.. but then there also is something of a scale how hard certain afflictions are too heal as you said.

Can't heal old age afflictions either btw

Cannot heal old age, undead, and inanimate units.

Think of it as "The chance that any given unit will get a heal check each month." If a unit makes this heal-skill check, THEN you worry about affliction difficulty. (Feeblemind is high, but not the highest).

I'm not sure that's the actual mechanic; it may be one modified check rather than two separate ones, and I can only guess how it orders multiple afflictions (I think from easiest to hardest to heal?). But that's an easy way to understand the "Heal Value": as the chance that any unit will get time with the healer this month.

well, I've played a lot of games with GOH. I can say it seems like all the easy afflictions.. eye loss, battle fright .. etc

always get healed first.. feeblemind toward theend.

Wish insanity could be reduced.

Is there a limit to the number of units a healer can heal every turn or does a healer perform it's healing check against every afflicted unit in the province?

Also, how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

Healing works so that the number you see is the chance to successfully use a healing ability that turn. If the check is successful, it checks against the difficulty of the affliction and some are harder than others.

Neverhealing wound and feeblemind seem to be the most persistent and feeblemind is the easier of the two.
