Default Re: Unit Buffs Quick reference

I'm not sure bows would work either. Haven't tested it, but I think bows come after casting.

I'm not sure that addresses the original question anyway. All I can say to that is that I've never seen that behavior. I know I've seen slaves cast even when they had gotten multiple buffs the turn before. (As long as they act before the masters.) I haven't played with communion buffed thugs lately so I'm not sure there isn't some weirdness there. I'm not sure I've ever arranged for 10 buffs. I assume you were using matrixes?

Sorry! By "them" I was referring to the communion masters after running through their buffs.

Yes using matrixes And yes I gave bows to my masters

I script my 2 masters : buff, buff, buff, buff, < fire >
And my slaves : hold, hold, hold, hold, hold, < attack >

And the slaves wait something like 8 turns before moving (yet some of them had only 35 fatigue by turn 5, which looks not much to me).

edit : problem is -> by turn 8 the masters may have been killed easily by the ennemy, while my slaves are just watching
