Sounds strong.. what are the nations weakness to offset the multiple attacks, powerfull blessed mages and high armoured troops?

The offcet to the Kung Fu Master's of multiple attacks is low attack values, low hp, no armor.

Really... it doesn't take THAT long to download the mod and read throught he .dm. The kungfu-guys have like attack of 5, and the special unit with kungfu and chi kick and bite and claw and fist and whatever else in addition to glamour and magic, well, he has total of 5 hp. I didn't notice any units that didn't have a clear weakness, and I just read through the .dm.

I see 5 hp as a clear weakness :S
The only unit with glamour is one of the heroes and hes got 5hp.

If I might suggest something-maybe have your kung fu guys (that's a technical term) be relatively tough-as in resistant to damage-in their young to middle age, and then have a switch where they become frail with age but do a lot of damage as elders, since they'll have made the switch from physical power and resilience to focusing and relying on their Chi.

I'm not sure if I used double or triple negative, but I tried to say that the units, including the powerful ones, had some weaknesses. Having only 5 hp is one of the weaknesses, of course.

The only way to really appreciate how the units work is to play a short or long game. The units really come together and adap to different bless strategies.

Any comments and suggestions are welcome. Let me know how you liked the mod. Thanks

Hmm well endo I just tried to make most of what I read in his post.

Personally I'm not so fond of units having stats that seem undominion like though (humans with att 5 and hp 5 for example). But that is just me I guess others just mind if the race bring something different (and I guess it does see below) and is balanced, which others will have to test.

5 hp and 5 att, 3 attacks sounds like maniac ninja goblins

(which isn't critisism... maniac ninja goblins would make for a great different thematic nation really)
