Army Buffs
I had a game using elephants & nature mages.
So I scripted regeneration on elephants who where close to the mage but instead they targeted some archers quite far from them. Bad.
A simple solution for this misunderstandings is reduce the range of this spell so there's no chance at all that those mages do something so useless instead of what would be cool to have regenerating berseked elephants. not regenerating archers and plain elephants.

Re: Army Buffs
Maybe did they target the archers because the area of effect of the spell contains more archers than elephants ?

Re: Army Buffs
maybe. I don't know how they pick their targets.

Re: Army Buffs
Target picking for army buffs is often crap. I love it when mages cast Berserkes on archers- or better yet, on other mages!
Which I suspect happened in the same game, so we've both been screwed by this, Manuk
As for Regeneration, both long-range and short-range versions would have their different uses, so I wouldn't say that the spell really needs to be altered. Long range means more and more units can be given regeneration as the battle progresses, though you do lose the precise targeting.

Re: Army Buffs
No, that was in Tempest game against Velusion, but I won that battle, only that it would be better if they did as I expected (they ignored berserk all the way).
In the battles against you I didn't try to enchant the mamooths just try to leave clear they retreat so they don't trample my mages.

Re: Army Buffs
It's also fun to see my mages spamming legions of steel on fanatics. Great work boys, way to waste earth gems!

Re: Army Buffs
Legions of Steel doesn't require any gems, so at least you're only wasting fatigue. (Unless you meant that they use gems to reduce fatigue.)
Strength of Giants, on the other hand, would be ideal.

Re: Army Buffs
Am I going crazy? I posted an extremely in-depth suggestion for a new way for the scripting to work regeneration. It was a very long and precise post, and I think it had some good ideas.
Anyone remember seeing it? Did it get erased? I'll post again later if I have the energy.

Re: Army Buffs
Sorry, searched the forums for your posts but the only one mentioning the word "regeneration" is this one.

Re: Army Buffs
I never saw it, and I would have remembered a post like that. Maybe the forum gave you the "Preview" page instead of submitting immediately, and you didn't notice. If you're still up for it I'd like to hear what you meant to say.
