Re: Conceptual Balance Mod 0.9
I must admit to being utterly confused by claims that magic has become underpowered. I would be absolutely astonished if someone could win even a mid sized blitz without investing in mages.
People seem to think a lot of things were overnerfed, and are now useless. So here is my question, what is what too useful now, what are the overpowered strategies that let you win with little thought? As I said before, it makes little sense to try to boost everything to the level of the very best options, rather than meeting halfway. It would be like trying to boost every troop to the power of helhirdlings.
I would also like to point out the limiting of magic by nation is just tying up the loose ends of what IW wanted anyway. If they were aware how easy it still is to diversify magic, and felt motivated to tweak it, it's quite likely they would make similar changes.
Oh, and after looking at Nerfix's buggy save, I'm very baffled. I made no change to vine arrow, or even tangle vines. My guess is that due to some bugginess with the new spell modding, one or several of the aoe changes for other spells somehow got onto vine arrow. Tracking down such an issue is going to be extremely difficult.
